Each year from November 1 to January 1, VISTA sponsors a Holiday Health Drive for employees. It’s our way of helping people manage stress and avoid the nutrition and fitness landmines that so often accompany the season. More than 80 percent of employees participated. We’re especially proud of the employees who QUIT SMOKING!! Yeah!
As we announced on June 1, VISTA Staffing Solutions and our worthy competitor, CompHealth, have challenged each other to a Food Fight to help end hunger in our communities. It’s CompHealth’s 663 Salt Lake City –based employees against VISTA's 189 employees, most of whom work in Salt Lake City. Additional VISTA employees are contributing from our offices in Atlanta, Wilkes-Barre, PA, and Cary, NC. The winners will be determined by total pounds of food contributed per employee.

The VISTA family got a little bigger last month as we welcomed the experienced search consultants from Fox Hill Associates. VISTA acquired Fox Hill, a very well-respected permanent physician search firm with a 30-year history in the industry, on Oct. 1. All of the employees have accepted positions with VISTA!
The Fox Hill Folks will be joining the Physician Search and Consulting team that I manage. Consequently, I thought it was very important that we all get to know each other quickly. Fortunately, I am currently in the running for a very prestigious award (see The Wrangler Face-Off, The New Face of Wrangler), so I was able to offer a nice introduction to myself.
