The Problem

Nursing shortage means agencies scramble to fill shifts. Schedulers spend 4+ hours daily calling nurses to fill openings. Credential tracking (licenses, certifications, TB tests) is manual in spreadsheets. Overtime costs are $15B+ annually in US hospitals. Float pool management is chaotic. Nurses get called for shifts they're not qualified or credentialed for.
