Health Carousel Announces New Pediatric Workforce Solutions

CINCINNATI, Sept. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- At Health Carousel, our purpose is to improve lives and make healthcare work better. With the launch of our Pediatric Workforce Solutions, our goal is to ensure that every child has access to quality healthcare when and where they need it. We understand that every child is different and so are the facilities in which they receive care. That's why we created a customizable workforce solution to help manage expenses, reduce reliance on premium labor, and achieve workforce stabilization specifically for pediatric facilities.

We are excited to announce the addition of Bill Lecher, DNP, MBA, RN, NE-BC to guide our Pediatric Workforce Solution Strategy. Bill brings more than 30 years of leadership experience, most recently leading staffing efforts at the number one Children's hospitals in the country.  Our clinically led approach includes board-certified pediatric nurses, specialty recruitment resources, and dedicated account management teams.

Kyle Kinzie, Vice President of Sales and Account Management, notes:

"This is a significant milestone in our commitment to deliver exceptional workforce solutions across the country. We understand the importance of providing high-quality pediatric care, and this initiative reflects our dedication to the unique needs of our clients.  I'm incredibly excited to leverage the expertise and insights of a seasoned clinical leader like Bill as we work together to drive positive impact for our clients' communities and the children and families they serve."
