The Joint Commission has awarded Trusted Talent its Gold Seal of Approval for Health Care Staffing Services, the industry's most rigorous credential. We are also the Official Healthcare Staffing Partner of the Buffalo Sabres, named to the 2025 SIA Fastest-Growing US Staffing Firms list, the 2024 SIA Largest US Staffing Firms list, and recognized as a 2023 Inc. Best Workplace.

That's how we earned a 100% application response rate and a within-the-hour response time on Vivian. It's also why so many of our travelers come back assignment after assignment.
