[Histonet] Hospitals that use Temps

[Orr, Rebecca]

Hi Everyone,
We are considering using a temp  agency to cover some short leaves and
maybe fill in PRN. 
What do you do with training and competency that needs to be done to
fulfill JCAHo?
What about the in-house hospital training? Do you adjust your training
to accommodate these temps?
In your experience, are the temp agencies  responsible for some of this
training?

We are thinking a temp would need the same training as our staff.

Does anyone have experience they would like to share? I'd appreciate it.

Thank  you
Becky
