The platform launched in Texas Tuesday and will expand across the country throughout 2017 and 2018 to allow nurses the opportunity to find short-term clinical work in hospitals and health systems nationwide.
The addition of short-term staffing options for nurses addresses a critical shortage in the market that is expected to increase as the U.S. population ages, officials said.
