      &quot;The council will provide insight and guidance on national

      and their potential impacts to Cross Country Healthcare and our
      customers,&quot; noted Hank Drummond, senior vice president and chief
      clinical officer at Cross Country Healthcare. &quot;Our purpose is to
      ensure clinical excellence and positive patient outcomes by leveraging
      creative, optimal practices, intuitive technologies, and innovative
      solutions to connect quality candidates with the essential jobs that will
      enable healthcare practitioners and organizations to achieve their

      &quot;The Clinical Advisory Council was formed to ensure we continue to

      president of workforce solutions at Cross Country Healthcare. &quot;The
