| What kind of career opportunities does your
company offer?
Freedom Healthcare Staffing (FreedomHCS) offers temporary travel
assignments, 4 to 13 weeks in duration all over the United States.
Do you cover all the United States, parts of the U.S. or do you also offer
international assignments?
We offer assignments all over the United States.
What is your average time from acceptance of application to first day on
the job for those nurses ready-to-go?
Typically, a response within 2-3 business days; some
hospitals are quicker with a response and some are slower. The important
thing, for us, is to advise the Healthcare Traveler on our experience on
working with a particular Hospital and to set realistic expectations for the
turnaround time on an interview and ultimately an offer of a position.
What size is your company and can I expect to be treated as a number or a
name?
One of our core values is to treat our Healthcare Travelers
with Respect. Although we are a small company, Freedom Healthcare Staffing
was established by executives from the hospital and staffing industry. Many
of our nurses know us from the larger companies we were formally with. It is
very important to our President, as well as every member of Freedom
Healthcare Staffing, that our Healthcare Travelers have a rewarding
experience, both intrinsically and monetarily, while working with our
Company.
Can I expect personal service with your company?
Absolutely! Again, this is at the heart of Freedom Healthcare Staffing.
I work night shift, what if I have problems at night?
Do you have someone I can talk to even in the middle of the night?
All of our staff is on call, 24 hours a day, including our President! You
can be assured that if you do have a problem, you will not be routed to a
call center; but to an individual within FreedomHCS that is empowered to
handle your particular situation.
What other type of benefits does your company provide?
We offer comprehensive benefit insurance thru United Healthcare, life
insurance, Simple IRA with Company match, CEU reimbursement, licensing
assistance, professional liability insurance, direct deposit, weekly pay,
online portal, company-provided housing and travel, along with a lucrative
referral rewards program.
About professional insurance, do you believe that the insurance that a
company provides is good enough, or does the nurse also need to obtain her
own professional insurance?
Freedom Healthcare Staffing provides comprehensive
professional liability insurance for our Healt00hcare Travelers. We
exclusively deal with insurance companies rated “A” (or higher).
What makes your company more than “just another” travel company?
Freedom Healthcare Staffing stands behind our Healthcare
Travelers! Many companies pay “lip service” to this value, but this is also
at the heart of our interaction with our nurses. In fact, there are hospital
clients we will no longer do business with due to our perceived treatment of
our Healthcare Travelers.
Is there anything else you would like travel nurses to know?
It is our goal to make every experience with Freedom
Healthcare Staffing rewarding. We also specialize in the “hand holding”
sometimes needed for first-time travelers, and for that matter, any one else
that needs some extra emotional support while on the road. Thank you for
