About Us
Eternal Medical Services, LLC has been in business since April 2021, and prior to that, Karen Rodriguez, our founder and CEO, served as a consultant for the homecare industry with large national consulting firms here in the United States. Our office is located in Forsyth, GA (Monroe County), so we are close to you! In addition, Karen is not only a seasoned Registered Nurse with a wide range of experience in acute care and post-acute care, but she is also a Legal Nurse Consultant, educated by the University of Georgia. Karen has served in clinical and operational leadership positions for various organizations within the healthcare realm over the past 25 years.
We are experienced ACHC and CHAP certified consultants and a member of the American Staffing Association. Furthermore, we have a wide array of EHR experience including HCHB, Axxcess and Matrix Care in addition to others. Some of the EHRs we have taught and set up for large organizations during our consulting years. Although we continue to offer consulting services, we initially added our staffing services specifically for Hospice & Palliative Care, Home Health, and Private Duty over a year ago due to high demand. Today, we continue to meet the demands in healthcare and have expanded beyond homecare. We can provide Staffing from Front Desk, CNAs, LPNs, RNs, Managers, and Executives. Most importantly, we understand the love of the Healthcare field, and so does our staff! We are not your typical “staffing agency” with a warm body present. Our focus is quality over quantity. We are active with startup, small, medium and enterprise hospices here in GA and among other states, including staffing of inpatient units with our experienced RN’s.
Most leaders are so busy with “putting out fires”, leaders often do not realize they are adding more “fuel to the fire.” Our focused approach is to prevent fires and provide agency’s with proactive solutions and plans to implement at the sight of the first spark.
We can provide consulting services as well as staffing services (Per Diem, Contract Travel/Local, and Direct Search and Placement). We are lean and cost effective, and best of all, we are here to assist you with your organizational needs. We use savvy staffing software, and all of our clients have access to their Client portal where you may enter your own needs on your time.
We are here to assist should any of our services be of interest to you now or in the future. Feel free to reach out to us anytime, day or night! You may also book a call with us via our website scheduler page for a quick discussion on what you need and how we can help! We look forward to hearing from you at your convenience.
“Choosing to specialize in a field means that you are completely devoted to it; that you will protect it as if it were your own.” That is the energy that sets Eternal Medical Services apart.
