At Medely, we love celebrating our team members.

We sat down with Melissa Smith from our sales team to talk about her experience working for Medely and why she\u2019s passionate about helping nurses and health professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Melissa Smith, account executive manager, has played a major role in Medely\u2019s expansion. Like most of our Medely team, she was inspired to be a part of helping nurses and health professionals avoid burnout and achieve work-life balance while also helping facilities combat staffing gaps that can affect patient care. \u201cI joined Medely so I could help make a difference in the healthcare space,\u201d Melissa shares. \u201cWho helps the helpers? We do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combatting staffing shortages and burnout<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After witnessing how disruptive being short-staffed can be, Melissa is passionate about connecting more facilities with Medely and helping them keep their team running smoothly and efficiently. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have seen Medely be able to give a facility’s existing staff much-needed time off, have seen facilities be able to get back to focusing on patient care, and have seen entire health systems be able to operate more efficiently. It has truly been magical to witness.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Passion for helping nurses and health professionals<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Melissa\u2019s passion for changing the healthcare industry stems from her personal connection to the health professionals in her own life. \u201cI have always had family members that have been in healthcare, but I never really truly understood how many things go wrong when they\u2019re even one less person down for that day, \u201cMelissa shares. \u201cSo, to be able to present them with this option to have so many more hands on deck whenever they need it\u2026just really makes you feel good at the end of the day. And by helping them, you\u2019re also helping their patients.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges facilities are facing has helped Melissa continue to work toward ending staffing shortages that can throw the whole facility off-balance. Learn more about how she’s accomplishing this in her full video<\/a> on our Instagram!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take the leap with Medely<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWhy would you want to leave something to chance when you can easily have a Medely professional come in and just take all of that stress off of you?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Medely relies on a strong team to be able to expand to facilities across the country. Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our sales team, we\u2019ve partnered with over 4,000 healthcare facilities nationwide, and we\u2019re continually working to expand our Talent Marketplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
