With a robust network comprising over 150,000 qualified healthcare providers, we are uniquely positioned to address the contingent workforce challenges faced by today's healthcare industry.

Central to our suite of specialized services is our unwavering commitment to International Recruitment and Locum Tenens, through which we channel our efforts to bridge the gap between demand for exceptional healthcare talent and the supply of highly skilled professionals from around the globe and within the country. This dual focus allows us to cater to a spectrum of staffing needs, from temporary placements for physicians and advanced practice providers through our Locum Tenens program to facilitating the seamless integration of international nursing and medical laboratory talent into the U.S. healthcare system.

Our International Recruitment initiative stands as a testament to our dedication to the global healthcare community. By implementing a comprehensive approach that encompasses immigration assistance, community integration, and ongoing support, we ensure that internationally qualified healthcare professionals are not only placed in roles that match their expertise but are also given the tools to thrive in their new environments. Whether it's through the International Nursing Program or the H1B Employment Program for Medical Laboratory Scientists, we open doors for F1 students, TN visa holders, EB3 candidates, and H1B visa seekers, guiding them every step of the way towards fulfilling careers in healthcare.

Furthermore, Greenstaff Medical extends its capabilities beyond the confines of international recruitment and locum tenens, offering a suite of services designed to meet every conceivable staffing requirement. Our Travel Nursing and Healthcare services leverage a nationwide network to deploy experienced nurses and healthcare professionals across the country, ensuring that quality care is delivered irrespective of location.
