Eddie Parizek is an Assistant Vice President for HealthTrust Workforce Solutions’ MSP program. He and his team of 52 Program Managers, Program Professionals, Onboarding Specialists and more represent our HCA Healthcare facility clients to our staffing partners and to our in-house travel recruitment team.
Eddie joined the HealthTrust team in November 1998 as a per diem staffer in our West Florida office. His mother worked for HCA Healthcare’s West Florida division at the time and had heard about an opportunity in a local staffing office that she thought he would enjoy. With his 21-year work anniversary coming up in November, it’s clear that this career move was the right one for him.
Over his tenure with HealthTrust Workforce Solutions, Eddie has worked in numerous roles – per diem staffer, interim HR assistant, local contract coordinator and travel account manager – and ultimately moved to Fort Lauderdale to work in our Sunrise corporate headquarters. In 2014, when HealthTrust introduced its MSP program, Eddie was eager to help to lay the groundwork for this new business offering.
Eddie and his team work with our HCA Healthcare facility clients to fill their travel clinician vacancies. Once the facility clients disclose their needs, his MSP team reaches out to our staffing partners and to our in-house travel recruitment team to find qualified nurses or allied health professionals, who are then submitted to the facilities for potential interviews.
“The best part of my job is helping my team provide superior customer service to all stakeholders – facilities, recruiters, staffing partners – and to help improve patient care,” Eddie says. “If you think about patient care every step of the way, you know you've made a positive impact on someone’s life. What could be better than that?”
In addition to making positive impacts on human lives, Eddie also works to improve the lives of animals through his support of local, state and national animal rescue groups. Eddie has two cats – Mikens and Little – and enjoys reading historical biographies in his spare time. An avid tennis fan, an item on Eddie’s bucket list to attend all four Gram Slam events. Having attended the US Open, he is already one-quarter of the way there!
