Earlier this summer, Markham-based electronic medical records innovator
Nightingale was named 10th on
PROFIT magazine's annual list of the fastest-growing companies in Canada. Last month, as
the company reported its first-quarter results for fiscal 2011, the pace of growth showed no signs of slowing.
"Fiscal 2011 is off to an encouraging start, with more than 200 emergency medical records (EMR) seats sold across
Canada in Q1, compared to only eight seats sold in Q1 of last year," said Sam Chebib, President and CEO, Nightingale. He attributed the sales increase to government funding encouraging doctors to adopt the healthcare innovation of EMRs.
The company also recorded its highest quarterly gross profit -- up 80 per cent year-over year since the year before.
Nightingale is
hiring for seven positions now in the GTA, in order to achieve Chebibs stated goal for the year ahead of rapidly increasing sales and revenues.
