Barton's Nomination Rules
How It Works
We recognize the exceptional work that locum tenens providers do every day, and we also know of some locums who practice charity at the highest level. Whether they choose assignments in underserved areas, make a difference in a facility affected by a staffing shortage, dedicate their time between contracts to make a difference in their community, or help humankind by providing their skills or resources, Barton Associates is honored to work with these “locum heroes”.
From May 4th to June 1st, Barton Associates is calling for nominations of locum providers who go above and beyond in their daily lives. It doesn’t matter if they’ve done one locum assignment or many, as long as they’ve made a difference. For these individuals, service goes beyond care for individual patients. We’d love to hear their stories and recognize the compassionate work they do.
Eligibility
Nominated healthcare providers must have worked at least one locum tenens assignment in 2021 through any locum tenens staffing agency, and be able to show proof of assignment. Nominations must be completed and received by June 1st at midnight. Locum Heroes winners will be notified no later than August 1, 2022.
Judging
After all of the nominations are received, a panel of healthcare providers will select one deserving provider as the 2022 Barton Associates Locum Hero. The Locum Hero will be recognized with a $2,500 donation made in their name, to the charity of their choice1 , and a $2,500 award for themselves2!
1 For each winner chosen, Barton will donate $2,500.00 to the recipient's charity of choice, provided that the charity has gained 501(c)(3) status by the IRS, is in good standing with all relevant authorities, and can demonstrate its 501(c)(3) status and good standing.
2 For each winner chosen, Barton will award $2,500.00 directly to the recipient. The award will be subject to all applicable taxes and/or tax reporting, and payment is conditioned upon Barton's receiving a signed, valid IRS form W-9 and accurate remittance information.
