In the news: Travel agency offers laptops in exchange for employee referrals
Stressed Out Nurses Weekly, October 27, 2008
Many healthcare agencies rely on cash to recruit the best and brightest nurses, but Medical Solutions, a travel healthcare agency based in Omaha, NE, hopes a little technology will encourage employee referrals.
Medical Solutions' redesigned referral rewards program is now offering travel nurses a new Dell Vostro 1000 laptop computer every time they bring another registered nurse, LPN, or allied healthcare professional on board who completes at least 30 days of their traveling assignment. The computer, which is retailed at $699, is an alternative to the previous $500 cash bonus per referral. There is no limit to how many laptops or cash rewards each nurse can receive.
The agency, which sends its travel healthcare workers to almost 900 client hospitals, is also extending the incentives to include those not employed by the company, but able to recruit nursing and allied healthcare professionals.
