Healthcare Float Pool FAQs

What's the difference between float pool and travel nursing?

Float pools are YOUR internal employees working across YOUR facilities (e.g., hospital system with 50 hospitals managing internal float RNs). Travel nursing is external contractors from agencies. Hirepad is for managing YOUR internal float staff.

Can we manage RNs, doctors, and allied health in one system?

Yes! Create separate float pools for RNs, physicians, respiratory therapists, etc. Each can have different credential requirements and workflows but all managed centrally.

What if float staff need different licenses per state?

Track multiple state licenses per employee. System only allows them to book shifts at facilities in states where they hold valid licenses. Auto-expiry reminders per license.

How does employee self-scheduling work?

Float staff log into portal, see all open shifts across all facilities, filter by location/date/unit, and request shifts they want. Managers approve or auto-approve based on your rules.

Can facility managers post shifts for their location?

Yes. Set permission levels. Unit managers post shifts for their facility. Float pool coordinators see all facilities. System-level HR has full visibility and control.

What analytics do we get?

Float utilization per facility, fill rates, response times, true float costs, staff utilization rates, credential compliance status. Export reports for finance and operations.

Does this replace our scheduling system?

No, Hirepad focuses on FLOAT POOL coordination and flexible shift management. It complements (not replaces) your core scheduling system for regular assigned staff. Think of it as an internal shift marketplace for your float pools.

How many facilities can we manage?

From 5 to 100+ facilities. Small hospital groups with 10 facilities use Hirepad. Large health systems with 50+ facilities use Hirepad. Platform scales to your size.
