Davin Healthcare Workforce Solutions is proud to announce two major milestones: the appointment of Matthew Hickling, MSN, CPNP-PC, as Chief Nursing Officer (CNO), and the expansion of its services to include a new Permanent Placement Division for physicians and advanced practice providers.
A Visionary Leader for the Future of Nursing
Matthew Hickling brings more than clinical credentials to his new role—he brings heart, vision, and a relentless drive for innovation. A board-certified Pediatric Nurse Practitioner with experience spanning developmental pediatrics, emergency nursing, oncology, and intensive care, Hickling embodies a patient-centered approach grounded in evidence-based practice.
In his previous roles, Hickling has demonstrated a powerful commitment to empowering nurses and healthcare professionals through mentorship, education, and systemic change. His ability to navigate both the clinical and administrative sides of healthcare makes him a unique and valuable asset to the Davin Healthcare team.
“Matthew’s leadership style, clinical expertise, and forward-thinking vision make him a vital addition to our team,” said David Theobald, DNP, MS, RN – CEO and Founder of Davin Healthcare. “His commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration and evidence-based practice will help elevate our impact on healthcare systems, clinicians, and the communities we serve.”
Strengthening Workforce Solutions with Permanent Placement Services
Hickling’s appointment comes at a pivotal moment in Davin Healthcare’s evolution. Beginning this month, the organization is expanding its Managed Service Provider (MSP) offerings to include Permanent Physician and Advanced Practice Provider Placement Services. This service line extension enhances Davin Healthcare’s ability to deliver fully integrated staffing solutions, offering healthcare organizations the flexibility to meet both short-term and long-term clinical needs.
This launch responds to the industry’s growing demand for sustainable staffing strategies that address clinician burnout, retention, and pipeline development. By bridging temporary assignments with permanent placement capabilities, Davin Healthcare continues to lead with innovation and impact.
A Holistic Approach to Healthcare Staffing
At the core of Davin Healthcare’s mission is a dedication to improving healthcare outcomes through compassionate care, strategic staffing, and workforce development. With Hickling’s leadership and the introduction of permanent placement services, the organization is well-positioned to continue transforming the healthcare staffing landscape.
Together, these milestones reflect Davin Healthcare’s unwavering commitment to clinicians, facilities, and the communities they serve.
