Remain competitive in an unpredictable healthcare talent landscape  

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment in healthcare will grow by 13% between 2021 and 2031, with nurse practitioners having the highest projected percent change of employment of any occupation in the country.  

Driven by high turnover from pandemic burnout and a large number of nurses reaching retirement age, the nationwide shortage of nursing talent is further complicated by an aging population demanding care. Some healthcare systems have turned to hiring traveling nurses as a temporary solution, but this is incredibly expensive and unsustainable. As quality care relies on adequate staffing, this is a serious crisis for our nation. 

Healthcare organizations don’t have an effective way to look for passive talent, and have a hard time finding accurate and up-to-date contact information for nurses and other healthcare candidates. There hasn’t been a good way to search state registries and get a comprehensive view of nursing talent—until now.
