Agency Staff

Hi- Has anyone used agency staff for clinical documentation improvement?
I have a need for supplemental staff and would appreciate any feedback
from those of us who have used agency.


If you do not want to post, please email me or call me. I'm fairly
desperate. :-)

    We have brought in nurses from the consulting company we work with. We are currently down 2 positions and will have 2 nurses from them working with us. I believe there are "traveling CDS nurses" as well.
