Our Commitment
Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion.
Healthcare gets stronger when every voice is welcomed. Here's how ENS Staffing builds a culture of belonging — for our nurses, our partners, and the patients we serve together.
Our Belief
The healthcare community is at its strongest when it reflects the full diversity of the patients and communities it serves. As a Midwest nurse-staffing partner, Excellent Nursing Services, Inc. believes that diversity, equity, and inclusion ("DEI") are not initiatives to be checked off — they are core to our identity, our hiring, and the quality of care we help deliver.
Diversity
We celebrate the differences among our nurses, staff, and partners — including but not limited to race, ethnicity, national origin, age, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, religion, ability, neurodiversity, veteran status, language, and life experience. We actively recruit from diverse pipelines and partner with nursing programs and community organizations that broaden access to the profession.
Equity
We are committed to fair and consistent practices in:
- Recruiting, screening, hiring, and placement.
- Compensation, scheduling, and access to assignments.
- Professional development, mentorship, and continuing education.
- Resolving concerns and complaints quickly and respectfully.
When systemic barriers exist, we work to remove them — recognizing that equity sometimes requires more than treating everyone identically.
Inclusion
We aim to create an environment where every nurse and team member feels valued, heard, and able to do their best work. That includes welcoming feedback, providing reasonable accommodations, and ensuring our communications, training, and assignments are respectful of cultural, religious, and personal differences.
Equal Opportunity Employment
ENS Staffing is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, or gender identity), national origin, age, disability, genetic information, veteran status, or any other classification protected by federal, state, or local law in any aspect of employment, including recruiting, hiring, promotion, and termination.
How We Hold Ourselves Accountable
- Reviewing our hiring and placement data for fairness.
- Providing regular training on respectful workplace conduct, anti-harassment, and cultural humility.
- Maintaining clear, confidential channels for raising concerns without fear of retaliation.
- Listening — directly to our nurses, our clients, and the communities we serve — and updating our practices when we can do better.
A Standing Invitation
DEI is not a destination. We will continue to learn and improve. If you have ideas, feedback, or concerns about how ENS can be a more inclusive partner, we want to hear from you. Reach out at 1-574-333-2655 or through our Contact page.
