Don't miss this gold mine of insight into how clinicians think about which facilities they choose.
We brought experienced agency clinicians onto the show so our facility audience could hear it straight from them: What makes clinicians choose certain facilities and entirely skip others?
The answers drive clinician choices every day, resulting in shifts being filled or left open. Many of the biggest difference makers for clinicians are surprisingly easy for facilities to implement.

Join Ethan and Trisha as they discuss a topic we hear about often—managing agency staff at your facility. They share tips and tricks for managing expectations, sharing feedback and ways to ensure you are always our team's top choice.
Gain an insider perspective on what compliance really means in healthcare agency staffing and why you can't take for granted what you expect is what's being checked by your agency. Some do the bare minimum, which can still create exposure for you. The best go above and beyond the requirements, providing legal compliance, peace of mind, and exceptional clinician vetting for a drop-in-ready fit with the facility. Learn how to identify your agency's compliance checklist and standards. Discover why you want to work with a company that goes above and beyond.
In today's nursing shortage, simply posting a per diem shift doesn't mean it will get picked up. Agency clinicians value their ability to choose and in an environment where demand is greater than supply, it's important to be an attractive employer for per diem staff. Similar to recruiting full-time clinicians, facilities need to put their best foot forward to get agency clinicians to accept the first shift. And they need to provide a good experience to ensure the best clinicians keep coming back. Learn the tips and best practices used by those who get agency clinicians to prefer their facilities. Make your facility a favorite among agency clinicians.
