There are many credible reasons for accreditation of the staffing industry, but perhaps the most compelling for the medical arena lies with the regulatory agencies involved in healthcare.
Anyone who deals with healthcare providers knows of the several accrediting bodies (Medicare, OSHA, JCAHO, etc.) that have significant regulatory effects on the providers. Never before has there been greater pressure and demands on healthcare providers to be more engaged in the due diligence process regarding supplemental staff. Those providers include entities such as hospitals, home health agencies, nursing homes, freestanding surgical centers, rehab centers, etc. As time passes, greater pressure will be applied to pursue regulatory rules and standards by some that have little understanding of the intricacies of the staffing industry.
Other credible reasons for pursuit of accreditation include:
