The National Association of Locum Tenens Organizations named Stacey Stanley as president elect. Stanley is CEO and founder of Dayton, Ohio-based Next Medical Staffing. She will assume the role of NALTO president at the 2017 NALTO Annual Convention and serve for a period of two years, through 2019.    

“On behalf of the entire board of directors, I would like to congratulate Stacey on being named our new president-elect,” said Melissa Byington, president of CompHealth and president of the NALTO board. “She brings extensive leadership experience in the staffing industry and a tremendous commitment to her responsibilities on the board. I am also pleased to welcome our three new directors and look forward to working with these exceptional industry leaders and our other Board members in furthering the mission and continued success of NALTO.”

The NALTO board also appointed three new directors, which expands the organization’s governance structure from to 10 members from seven. New board members are:

• Anne Anderson: executive VP, Medical Doctor Associates
• Brent Harrolle: VP, locum tenens, All Medical Personnel
• Joe Matarese: CEO and founder, Medicus Healthcare Solutions

The following members were also re-elected to the board of directors:

• Ty Chambers: executive VP, Delta Locum Tenens
• Carmen Renaldy: president, MedLink Staffing
• Stacey Stanley: CEO and founder, Next Medical Staffing

NALTO board members each serve a two-year term.

NALTO also created a new affiliate membership classification, which includes companies whose primary business may not be locum tenens but who are either a third party or have a portion of their business in locum tenens staffing. These affiliate members can participate in educational programs, conferences, committees and other industry activist activities but will not be voting members.

“The addition of this affiliate membership classification will help us grow and evolve as an organization and share best practices,” Byington said.
