Today’s highly disrupted healthcare environment requires every type of healthcare facility to think of new and novel ways to keep the doors open, to keep staff satisfied, and to ensure patient access to safe and timely care.
An Alternative, Sustainable Approach To Anesthesia Staffing
Investing funds in a sustainable way can meet your staffing needs. By adopting an alternative approach, not only can you mitigate your anesthesia staffing issues but you also can establish a pool of skilled professionals for the future.
The Solution – Build A Pipeline With ARRP
The Anesthesia Remediation & Reentry Program’s (ARRP) aim is to put non-practicing or non-boarded anesthesiologists back to work. This is done by developing and executing individualized remediation programs which are carefully developed and undertaken at selected ARRP-affiliated hospitals. By employing unique, innovative methods, the four-phased program aims to reintegrate and return anesthesiologist to the work they love.
Facilities can achieve a substantial return on their financial investment in starting and maintaining the program, while enrollees can experience the opportunity to re-enter a professionally rewarding career.
In collaboration with your hospital, ARRP can launch in as few as 3-6 months.
