qualified healthcare professionals to bolster its workforce
MCLEAN,
Va., May 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- ShiftMed, the
leader in On Demand workforce technology, announces its partnership
with Children's Minnesota, an
award-winning healthcare system delivering high quality pediatric
healthcare. ShiftMed will provide Children's Minnesota access to its integrated platform
and extensive network of local, qualified healthcare
professionals.
Children's Minnesota is one of
the largest independent pediatric health systems in the United States. Maintaining optimal
personnel levels is paramount to ensuring the seamless delivery of
specialized care to pediatric patients.

the country, including Children's Minnesota. In addition to ongoing direct
hiring of healthcare professionals, the partnership with ShiftMed
offers Children's Minnesota
another strategy to alleviate the challenges by providing a
flexible, on-demand means for qualified healthcare professionals to
pick up shifts.
"As an organization focused on caring for children, we never
underestimate the role of highly specialized healthcare
professionals in providing exceptional care," said Yinka Ajose, Senior Director Clinical Operations
at Children's Minnesota. "We are committed to ensuring the
patients and families who rely on us receive the care they deserve
and that our care teams feel supported amid the workforce
challenges facing many of us in healthcare. We're excited to
partner with ShiftMed to support our community and workforce."
"We're in a privileged position to work with some of the
country's top health systems like Children's Minnesota," said Todd
Walrath, CEO and founder of ShiftMed. "We recognize the
tremendous impact the health system has on the community, and we're
honored to play a part in supporting their operations. Our
partnership reflects our shared commitment to excellence and
innovation in healthcare delivery, and we look forward to making a
