Patients naturally assume that everyone they encounter within a healthcare facility is a hospital employee. Onsite vendors are often seen as an extension of the hospital itself and should embody the organization’s values from the very first interaction. That’s why it’s essential to partner with vendors who fully integrate into your facility’s culture.
Beyond verifying skills and performance, it’s important to consider how a vendor’s presence impacts your hospital’s reputation. Don’t let time or budget constraints overshadow this crucial factor when selecting a vendor.
Ask yourself these key questions when assessing a vendor’s professionalism:
- Do their staff dress according to the hospital’s professional dress code?
- Do they understand and reflect your facility’s values and corporate culture?
- Do they represent your hospital with proper business etiquette?
- Are they compassionate and courteous when interacting with patients?
- Do they consistently demonstrate punctuality and professionalism?

As one Director of Patient Access shared:
“Carlos won the ‘Extra Mile Award’ for August at our facility—the first time a contract employee has received this honor.
