People 2.0 Launches Specialty Division to Better Serve Independents in the Healthcare Staffing Sector
West Chester, PA, September 26, 2008 – People 2.0, which operates a national Network of independently owned staffing companies, announced today that it has launched a Healthcare Division to cater to the special needs of independent healthcare staffing companies.
“We’ve always had healthcare staffing business,” says People 2.0 President and Co-founder, Chuck Miller, “but now we are giving increased focus to the sector with a specialty division. We will provide expanded and specialized back office resources and services designed to support their unique needs.”
The division will support a wide range of disciplines, including per diem, travel and contract nursing, allied healthcare personnel and several specialty niches. People 2.0 is partnering with BlueSky Medical Staffing Software, Nurse Testing.com, US Data Corp and others to provide web-based technology, resources for recruitment and employee retention, skill assessment tools and licensure lists as part of its specialty package. These will be coupled with People 2.0’s industry leading solutions for payroll funding and processing, workers’ compensation and administrative support.
Headed by Carla Fleming, a 16-year healthcare staffing veteran, People 2.0’s Healthcare Division is specially equipped to service this sector.
“Carla has been there and done it,” says Miller. “She understands that every day, independent owners are balancing the pressures of competing in a very tough recruiting market with all the pressures of running a successful staffing business. She knows how to use the systems and resources of People 2.0 to relieve that pressure and help healthcare staffing companies grow faster and more profitably.”
People 2.0’s Healthcare Division was originally unveiled at the Staffing Industry Analysts’ Healthcare Staffing Summit in

Its powerful business model allows staffing companies to focus on recruitment and customer service while gaining access to world-class information systems, flexible Workers’ Compensation plans, unlimited payroll funding, improved employee benefits, and full administrative support.
