Case Study: New York State staffs 75 vaccine centers with TemPositions Group of Companies

New York State staffs 75 vaccine distribution centers with TemPositions in 3 days

The customer was New York State, which faced the critical challenge of rapidly staffing 75 temporary vaccine distribution centers during the Covid-19 pandemic amidst a severe nursing shortage. The state needed thousands of clinical and non-clinical personnel immediately upon vaccine availability. TemPositions Group of Companies provided a managed service solution to meet this emergency staffing need.

TemPositions implemented a unified strategy, coordinating over 30 staffing firms through a single contract and a mobile app and web portal for management. This allowed New York State to open dozens of sites within three days. The solution scaled from providing 538 initial staff to over 5,000 weekly, including a team of 183 assembled in two days that set a record for most vaccinations at one site in 24 hours. TemPositions achieved a 98.9% staff acceptance rate, with only 51 out of 5,000 employees asked not to return.
