What is the Hybrid Program?

Source Healthcare Staffing offers three types of nurse staffing arrangements.  There are typical travel nursing contracts, per diem contracts, and our Hybrid Program.

The Hybrid program here at Source Healthcare blends some of the best parts of Travel and Per Diem nursing.  I'm here to explain it so you understand both what it is that makes Source different and what we can do for you.

So as I said before, the program was designed to give you the best of both worlds.  You get to travel to a new location, experience a new way of life - or you can "travel" (stay relatively close to home) if that's better for you - and a lot of times you also choose your schedule.  You give us 5 days of availability and we schedule you for 3 or 4 (or more - however many you'd like).  

The way the program works is we house you in a convenient location in the center of several hospitals.  You work with our staffing department to set your schedule each week. This gives you a broad range of experiences with different people, doctors, patients, and hospitals, which will look great on a resume down the road.

We offer assignments for whatever length you desire! Our assignment length can be anywhere from 4 to 52 weeks. It's done through a contract that is secure to give you peace of mind and the hours you deserve. 

Our nurses through the travel program get the same amenities as a travel nurse.  Along with the ones listed here there are extra shift bonuses, health benefits and both relocation and licensing assistance.

The Hybrid program allows us the ability to staff nurses with only a year of experience, while most staffing agencies need a 3-year minimum amount of experience. 

What do you need to do?
To take advantage of this opportunity and get yourself placed, here's the list of steps you need to take:

1. Fill out our application on our website
2. Complete a Phone Interview - usually within the week of your application submission.
3. Get compliant - this is about a 2-week process, but once it's done - it's done and doesn't need to be repeated, allowing you the freedom to travel with us in the future.
4. Get going! 

Choosing this program allows you to travel and choose between either a tax-free housing stipend (to find your own living situation), or living arrangements that are prepared and ready for you when you get there!

Some ideas of how to take advantage of this opportunity:

  • Schedule your shifts in a chunk. This type of scheduling gives you a 3 or 4 day weekend to go home or to spend sight-seeing if you wish!
  • Travel somewhere you've always wanted to see! Do you love California? What about Colorado? Try living it up in Vegas! There are so many options you can explore so make sure to pick one you'll remember forever!
  • Travel with your friends! Do you have any co-workers that you'd love to explore America with? Take them with you! You can do an extended vacation together with us!
