About ViTalent
Our caregivers are the heart of ViTalent because it's about you, not us!
We specialize in connecting highly qualified caregivers with high-paying jobs. With a wide variety of shifts and clinical settings available, our nurses have the flexibility to choose when and where they work based on their skills, availability, and interests. Our positions offer possibilities for healthcare benefits, paid training, advancement, and travel. Get healthcare jobs in the fastest-growing sectors.
A proven track record.
Our team has successfully recruited, trained, deployed, and developed hundreds of resources to support client needs. ViTalent was formed to leverage this experience and close the skills, diversity and resource gaps in life sciences, clinical research, and healthcare. We are large enough to have access to great jobs, but small enough to still take the time to build relationships with our caregivers. Our recruiters utilize a “white glove” process when matching caregivers to the right role and are truly advocates for our nurses and clinicians. In fact, most nurses and clinicians that work with ViTalent refer their friends and associates because of their experience, an opportunity we don't take lightly.
A structure built for retention and quality.
At ViTalent, we understand that long-term success in healthcare staffing begins with our nurse team. To that end, we created our Nurse Care Team to specifically drive culture and ensure our nurses feel valued and supported. We firmly believe that a happy nurse is an engaged nurse, which ultimately translates to client and patient satisfaction. Led by a long tenured RN, the Nurse Care Team provides clinical, professional, and personal support and development for our nurses daily.
