Placement Process

The difference between Compass Clinical Consulting and other firms that place interim healthcare executives and directors stems from our history as leadership and clinical consultants. Most firms that specialize in interim placement come from a background in executive search. As consultants, our engagements frequently necessitates helping hospital clients find talent that can implement needed organizational change.

As a result, we began helping create better hospitals by providing exceptional interim healthcare executives and clinical directors. We understand the work that needs to be done and recruit a higher level of talent that can step into interim situations and immediately contribute, lead change processes and bond teams together effectively.

We have done this with such consistency that many leading hospital managers rely on us to provide experienced, senior leaders who create immediate impact while our clients take the time needed to find the best possible permanent executive to join their team full-time.

We ensure that your organization’s needs are met by collaborating with you on the following steps:

1. Crafting a specific set of goals
   Before the assignment begins, we consult with you and key members of your hospital to understand your culture and what you want the interim healthcare executive or clinical director, to accomplish during the assignment.
2. Selecting an outstanding interim
   Very few who apply for interim healthcare executive work survive our rigorous process of interviews, reference checks and credentials verification. As a result, the interims we use have extensive and well-documented hospital experience appropriate, and generally senior, to the positions in which they are placed and the goals they are asked to achieve.
3. Maintaining regular contact during the assignment
   Our full-time healthcare consulting team backs up our interim healthcare executives and directors with particular expertise in quality, finance, Joint Commission accreditation, revenue capture, productivity improvement, human resources, medical staff development, materials management, strategic planning, and organizational development.
