Agency nurses lack essential facility information, orientation, and support, leading to inefficient sign-ups, unsafe shifts, and high turnover.
Existing facility orientation binders and on-call systems are inconsistent and don't provide enough detail upfront about facility conditions, ratios, or support structures, causing nurses to avoid unfamiliar assignments and feel unsafe.
Workarounds Described
- relies on word-of-mouth suggestions from other nurses to decide where to sign up
- uses a physical binder for orientation materials
- uses an 'on call system' to find support during off-hours
Implied Software Gaps
- Centralized facility information platform with peer reviews and detailed shift conditions
- Digital, standardized orientation system that adapts to each facility's protocols
- Real-time chain-of-command directory and support routing for off-hours shifts
NurseShift Connect
NurseShift Connect is a platform that provides agency nurses with comprehensive facility profiles (ratios, units, protocols, staff reviews) before signing up, includes a standardized digital orientation module, and offers real-time chain-of-command support via in-app chat. It reduces the guesswork and safety risks for nurses while helping facilities attract more reliable staff.
- Facility profiles with unit details, nurse-to-patient ratios, and anonymous nurse ratings
- Digital orientation module covering facility protocols, charting expectations, and emergency procedures
- In-app chain-of-command directory with escalation paths for off-hours support
- Integrated shift sign-up with transparency on pay, stipends, and tax information
