"Healthcare organizations that contract with TravelMax and Reflectx can look to this certification as an assurance that both companies demonstrate a commitment to providing and continuously improving quality services," says Michele Sacco, M.S., executive director, Health Care Staffing Services Certification, Joint Commission.

The Joint Commission's certification program, launched in October 2004, offers an independent evaluation of a staffing firm's abilities to provide competent staffing services.

"Certification recognizes our dedication to providing physical and occupational therapists, nurses, pharmacists, and other allied professionals that are qualified to provide safe, high-quality care to patients," says Daryl Dixon, Division President. "We are proud to receive The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval(TM). We recognize and value that The Joint Commission sets standards that are not only good for patient, but also good for business."
