LAKE SUCCESS, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--ATC Healthcare, the industry-leader in medical staffing franchising, today announced the addition of multiple new territories for franchise locations in five U.S. communities. The brand will launch four new offices in Texas, and a fifth in Georgia.
The complete list of new ATC Healthcare offices includes:
- Thomasville, GA
- Arlington, TX
- Ft. Worth, TX
- Southlake, TX
- Spring, TX
ATC Healthcare also announced today the hiring of executive Ed Silver, joining the company as chief financial officer.
“The realities on the ground in healthcare today are dire. Facilities need a constant flow of part time and full-time employees to meet care needs during a pandemic, and ATC Healthcare has proven itself a key asset to both its partners and to those in need of care,” Silver said.
Silver is a certified public accountant who started his career in public accounting. He went on to spend more than 20 years at Gould Paper Corporation, and most recently served as CFO for Citromax Group building strong finance teams and infrastructure. He brings demonstrated success in defining and achieving strategic objectives including successful sales growth programs.
Earlier in the year, the company tapped Erik Mallon to join as vice president of franchise development.
Mallon boasts more than 30 years of experience in franchising and strategic sales roles, Mallon has previously served as Sr. Director of Franchising for Nathan’s Famous, and VP of Franchise Development for Huntington Learning Center.
“One of the telltale signs of a successful franchise model is when your franchisees choose to expand their investment to include additional territories,” said Mallon. “I’m excited to join the team at this critical juncture, because it’s clear to me as it is to our founders: the ATC Healthcare model, backed by more than 30 years of proven results, works.”
Unprecedented demand for support staff at hospitals and other healthcare facilities is driving demand for both new franchise owners, and among existing franchisees. Four of the five newest franchise locations represent existing franchisees expanding in new territories.
ATC Healthcare added a total of ten new franchise locations in 2021, and executives for the company say they expect as many as eight additional franchises to come online before the end of the year. The growing ATC Healthcare brand will look to its new leaders to continue the successful run in 2022.
The incoming executives join Chief Operating Officer Marilena O’Neill, previously announced in April, as the organization defines its leadership to guide the company through an exciting phase of growth and expansion.
“The growth we’re seeing now is a testament, first, to the unmatched support we offer our franchise partners around the country, and second, to the consistency of our operations,” said O’Neill. “Our ability to successfully staff hospitals large and small, fill key roles in nursing homes and assisted living facilities, and to attract and retain the highest quality talent in healthcare; all of it means ATC Healthcare is running one of the most efficient franchise programs for the staffing industry.”
