In a strategic move to bolster its position in the locum tenens staffing sector, All Star Healthcare Solutions has officially announced the acquisition of Integrity Locums. This decision aims to unite the strengths of both organizations, that emphasize quality and relationships within the healthcare system. Founded in 2012, Integrity Locums had quickly established itself as a frontrunner in the industry, earning its place on the Staffing Industry Analysts’ list of the Largest U.S. Locum Tenens Staffing Firms in 2023. By focusing on creating lasting partnerships with healthcare facilities, Integrity has successfully matched qualified physicians and advanced practice providers with institutions in need of staff support. The amalgamation of All Star and Integrity signifies a commitment to advancing their shared mission: providing patients with the best possible care regardless of when or where they might need it.
Ken Bernstein, CEO of All Star Healthcare Solutions, expressed his optimism regarding this acquisition. He noted, "The combination of All Star and Integrity enhances our ability to serve healthcare providers and institutions more effectively." This acquisition is not just about size; it's about extending the range of specialties and enhancing the operational capacity to meet the growing demands of hospitals and healthcare systems nationwide. As healthcare challenges evolve, the collaboration between the two companies is expected to drive positive changes across the industry.
With the integration of Integrity's proven operational methods into All Star's robust infrastructure, the new entity aims to improve service delivery while maintaining a focus on human-centered staffing. This means providing opportunities not only to healthcare facilities but also to the professionals, fostering a collaborative ecosystem that seeks to achieve better patient outcomes.
On the other side, Integrity's CEO, Tim Devereux, spoke positively about the merger, highlighting the cultural synergy between the two organizations. "Joining the All Star family marks an exciting chapter for Integrity’s clients and providers," he stated. This partnership promises greater support for the Integrity team, which will enhance their capability to serve clients in a rapidly changing healthcare landscape.
Notably, this acquisition represents All Star’s first major move since partnering with Knox Lane, a growth-focused investment firm, in May 2024. The partnership aims to facilitate growth and innovation within the healthcare staffing arena.
As both organizations come together, their primary goal remains clear: improving the healthcare ecosystem as a whole. The alignment of their values and missions places them in an excellent position to respond to the ever-increasing needs of communities nationwide.
