Hospitals in the United States today are facing a crisis, a crisis in personnel. Structural changes in health delivery and the rapid growth of technology have combined to create serious staffing shortages.

At Lititz, we understand hospital staffing dilemmas. Besides the distractions and uncertainties of the hiring process in general, hospitals face life-and-death situations with irrevocable results. In addition, inadequate staff credentials and training may affect the hospital's protection from liability, professional rating and credibility with the public.

We focus on staffing so you can focus on what you do best, patient care. Because our company's survival is based on a thorough vetting process, we have developed a series of safeguards to facilitate personnel decisions. We verify all licenses, certificates, professional and personal references, and conduct background checks on every medical applicant. 

Outsourcing, in general, lets companies concentrate on their core competencies. Outside firms offer special expertise and economies of scale for accounting, human resources and technology. They also curtail payroll expenses for sick days, holidays, vacations and overtime. And the hospital's internal employees are happier when they can focus on tasks they have been educated and trained to fulfill.

Due to the unique nature of the hospital industry, Lititz closely monitors all staff placements. We coordinate with personnel departments, supervisors and co-workers to obtain and evaluate feedback and maintain a complete record on all our employees.

Today, Lititz serves 15 New York City hospitals including Lincoln Medical Center, Lutheran Medical Center and Bronx Lebanon Hospital. We view our clients as partners instead of customers. Perhaps, that's one reason why we still service 98 percent of the clients we ever worked with since our founding five years ago.
