Littlejohn & Co. LLC, a Greenwich, CT private investment firm, has purchased American Health Staffing Group, a provider of healthcare talent and technology services.

AHSG is focused on meeting the needs of healthcare facilities and creating positive patient outcomes. The firm offers travel nursing, allied health, pharmacy, dialysis, interim leadership and managed services with SaaS technology offered in thousands of locations.

The firm provides two proprietary SaaS platforms including Trio VMS and Insight ATS+. The firm uses these platforms to provide a vendor management system for complex operations and an applicant tracking system for the hiring process.

“Over the past decade, AHSG has become a leading player across the healthcare staffing market through industry foresight, strategic acquisitions and investing in its state-of-the-art scalable technology and services,” said Drew Greenwood, a managing director at Littlejohn.

“We believe this partnership will enable us to ensure more healthcare professionals are able to access high quality, skilled employment positions that are making a difference in the lives of millions of Americans and enhancing patient outcomes,” added Mark Smith, AHSG founder.
