VISTA In the News

VISTA Staffing is partnering with charity: water, a non-profit organization whose mission is to bring clean and safe drinking water to developing countries around the world. To date charity: water has funded 20 countries and 2,500,000 people with clean water and water education and their efforts continue to grow. Their main focus this year is the country of Rwanda where they hope to raise $1.7 million and provide 285,000 locals with new clean water sites.

We think about more than locum tenens and physician staffing at VISTA. In fact the company encourages community involvement and gives every employee a day of paid time for volunteer work or community service.

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.

IVUmed, a non-profit organization committed to making quality urological care available to people worldwide, is seeking a urologist with prior international experience to provide education and mentoring for its Traveling Resident Scholarship Program in Kampala Uganda, from March 16-29, 2010.

VISTA was launched in a Salt Lake City neighborhood called Sugar House on March 5, 1990 in a spare bedroom, with three people, one phone, one computer, a card table, three plastic lawn chairs, and a very strong plan.
