Our approach to travel nurse staffing is based on the following principles:
Quality Patient Care
When you hire a travel nurse from us, we do the work for you. You receive completed files that exceed JCAHO standards, including all competency, license and certification verification. We screen our nurses with the highest patient care standards. HealthSource partners with you to ensure quality service is delivered to your patients.
Fastest Response
We are available to you 24 hours, 7 days a week. Nursing leaders commonly call us at the last minute when they are unable to find other agencies to fill their positions. Whether the need is based on unexpected census fluctuations, new units opening or other needs, we make every effort to fill your requests quickly.
Filling Highly Specialized Positions
We staff some of the most respected and highly specialized facilities in the country. Because our database includes nurses from every specialty, we fill the positions others can’t. Next time you have an open position going consistently unfilled, give us a call.
Strike Staffing
We're here for you!HealthSource Global Staffing offers a full range of planning and patient care services for hospitals that plan beyond tomorrow. We’re a full-service consulting and staffing organization that has the skill and experience necessary to help hospitals of any size handle all elements of strike management.
Uninterrupted services
We assist healthcare facilities that face potential labor disputes to provide continuous, uninterrupted services to their communities. We offer qualified, professional replacement personnel (RNs, LPNs, CNAs, and Technicians), paired with a management team that has almost 55 years of cumulative work stoppage experience. Our services allow you to stay focused on relations with your employees while assuring quality patient care for your community.
High quality patient care
Our advance preparation and extensive database of workers enables us to recruit the right type of employees and minimize the risk of interrupted patient services during a strike. With the knowledge that a strike will not interrupt care, your facility can bargain from a position of strength, encourage early settlement and fewer strikes in the future. Continued care will also allow your facility to maintain consistent revenue and reputation within the community through the strike.

Hospital FAQ
Is HealthSource a domestic travel nurse company or an international recruiter?We're both. Our team has spent the last decade and a half filling thousands of travel nurse positions with domestic nurses. More recently, we have realized that foreign-educated nurses can provide a substantial cost savings opportunity to hospitals. So we started an international recruiting division in order to provide one-stop shopping to hospitals who have both short-term travel nurse needs and long-term cost savings goals.
How does HealthSource fill positions that other agencies can't?
We maintain a massive database of nurses and thousands of current files on nurses who are active and ready to travel. Through the years, we have created relationships with these nurses that make them excited to help us meet your needs.
How do you recruit foreign RNs with the right qualifications?
We require our foreign-educated nurses to meet the same general licensure and educational hurdles as domestic nurses. We only accept nurses who graduated from accredited colleges and received exceptional scores on English and clinical exams. We further scrutinize each nurse's real-world experience with detailed questionnaires and interviews.
For foreign RNs, when am I billed and how long is the process?
Most foreign recruiters make hospitals pay up-front and then wait for many months or even years for their nurses. HealthSource doesn't. By anticipating the staffing needs of hospitals, we start qualified nurses through immigration before a hospital is ever contacted. With our constant flow of nurses, hospitals can generally expect their foreign-nurse requests to be met in less than six months and sometimes in days.
