When it comes to nursing careers, there is no one-size-fits-all category. As circumstances change, the job that used to fit your lifestyle may not be the best fit anymore. That’s where HealthTrust Workforce Solutions can help.
“Life changes,” HWS CNO Shaun McCamant told HCA’s Clinical Excellence publication. “There are times when working per diem or being a travel nurse are the right answers for a nurse.”
When nurses join the HealthTrust Workforce Solutions team, they have access to the most sought-after positions at healthcare facilities across the country. As a fully-owned subsidiary of HCA, our nurses have unparalleled access to jobs at HCA and truly become members of the HCA family.

Despite an economic downturn some thought might slow demand for healthcare, the nursing shortage persists. Job openings for nurses between 2014 and 2024 are expected to increase 16%, making the profession one of the fastest growing occupations in the country. However, supply continues to significantly lag demand — with current nurse vacancies at nearly 1 million.
Competition for nurse talent isn’t the only thing growing. The desire for transparency into healthcare employers and what it’s really like to work for an organization is growing too — creating a whole new dynamic in nurse attraction that is essentially turning recruitment strategies inside out.

Our next corporate HealthTrust Hero is Vice President of Interim Leadership Brandi Vines!
Brandi earned her HealthTrust Hero status through her tireless work with our recent Disaster Relief efforts to help those affected by Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma.
