Back to the Beginning
After 20 years in the staffing industry, Rob found himself at a crossroads. Despite many successes while on the leadership team of a top 10 healthcare staffing agency, he just couldn’t shake the feeling his industry could be doing more. Then, while sitting at an America’s Essentials Hospitals (AEH) conference listening to healthcare executive after healthcare executive share innovative ideas of how they were treating more patients with limited resources – how they were doing more with less – he asked himself,
What were we doing across the staffing industry that was innovative, or actually brought increased value to healthcare facilities and clinicians?

A Better Way
After a decade of collaborating with healthcare organizations to design and implement a variety of workforce solutions, he realized a better solution was indeed possible. One that empowers facilities and clinicians to directly and transparently come together without a middleman, and allows facilities to pay their clinicians more while still saving hundreds of dollars per shift.
Blazing the Trail
It wasn’t long before fellow industry veteran Suzanne Masino was also convinced that this was in fact a better way. Together, they have leveraged over 40 combined years of industry experience to build a marketplace platform that empowers healthcare organizations to directly build, organize, and engage their own flex workforce. One that eliminates the clutter, ensures all credentialing ts are crossed, and leverages AI to utilize data for optimizing both the best results and the best experience.
Empowerment can truly be revolutionary. We’re on a mission to save the healthcare industry $1B in agency fees while also donating a vaccine with every shift booked – in the end, positively affecting lives both here in the US and across the globe.
