Private investment companies Cornell Capital and Trilantic North America have struck a deal to acquire Fastaff Travel Nursing (Fastaff) and U.S. Nursing as part of their efforts to build a leading tech-enabled platform for healthcare staffing.

The latest move follows three other recently announced acquisitions that include trustaff Management, CardioSolution and Stella.ai.

Trustaff is a leading provider of traditional travel nurse and allied healthcare staffing services, CardioSolution provides cardiologists and support personnel to hospitals, while Stella.ai is an AI-driven online marketplace that brings technology expertise to the staffing sector.

Fastaff has developed the Rapid Response travel nurse staffing and provides temporary nurses to help hospitals to provide continuous patient care during urgent and crucial situations across the world.

U.S. Nursing provides strike preparedness and job action staffing services for hospitals with unionised workforces.

Founded in 1989, Fastaff and U.S. Nursing partner with many large healthcare facilities, as well as small community hospitals, using a scalable, centralised infrastructure and shared technology.
