WORCESTER, Mass. — Fallon Clinic, a large, multi-specialty medical group practice in Central Massachusetts, Friday signed a memorandum of agreement to partner with the U.S. Army Reserve to bring the Employer Partnership Initiative (EPI) to the Fallon Clinic workplace. This initiative facilitates strategic and mutually beneficial relationships between employers and associations to recruit and train soldiers who are interested in securing a position in the growing field of healthcare, while they continue to provide service to our country. These soldiers will be training to fill needs in various healthcare-related fields, such as respiratory therapy, radiology, and physical therapy.
"At Fallon Clinic we believe that our success is directly linked to the quality of the people we hire," said Randi Nichols, executive vice president, Human Resources and Operations Support Services. "By partnering with the U.S. Army Reserve, we will attract and hire dedicated employees who are proven leaders, and also strengthen Fallon Clinic's impact on the success of our country's active military and veterans."
In partnering with the Army, Fallon Clinic has promised to employ or seek to employ qualified members of the Army Reserve and maintain a commitment to hiring and supporting the dedicated women and men who protect and serve the United States. Through this program, the Army Reserve and Fallon Clinic will collaborate on workforce development issues, including training, professional development and credentialing.
"The Army Reserve Employer Partnership is a human capital strategy that recognizes and characterizes the interconnectedness of business America and the Army Reserve," said Lt. Gen. Jack C. Stultz, chief of the Army Reserve, and commanding general, U.S. Army Reserve Command. "My vision is that corporate America considers the Army Reserve the number one source of professional, well-trained and experienced leaders. Just as our nation recognizes the Army Reserve as a good return on investment, my hope is that similarly, companies recognize Army Reserve soldiers as a sound investment in human talent."
It was the end of a great week for Army Reserve Soldiers. Every day a new partner signed an agreement to help build and develop Americans talent with the U.S. Army Reserve. In Michigan a Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, Ladlas Prince, became a partner Monday. Tuesday, Southwest Airlines landed long enough to join. The University of Pittsburgh Medical Center wasn't far behind on Wednesday and Thurday International chemical company BASF Corporation rounded it out.
The Army Reserve is a community-based federally directed force of highly-skilled, patriotic men and women that provides our nation with trained units and qualified Soldiers during peacetime, contingencies and war. Today, about 206,000 trained Army Reserve Soldiers in units across the country stand ready to serve the nation when called upon by the President of the United States.
