What happens if I book a new nurse who hasn't worked at my facility yet? Follow

uPaged shifts are casual shifts.

So if your facility employs uPaged nurses, when a uPaged nurse is accepted and booked into a shift for the first time:

1. You will receive an email confirmation of the shift booking and a nurse profile summary attached
2. Your HR department would receive an email notification to onboard the nurse and send a casual contract to them to sign.

This means that your facility employs the nurse, pays the nurse by your payroll system, and covers their insurance.

If your facility opts to use uPaged's partner payroll company instead to employ the nurse and manage their payroll and insurance:

1. You will receive an email confirmation of the shift booking and a nurse profile summary attached
2. The company will receive an email notification to onboard the nurse and send a casual contract to them to sign.

The nurse must be booked in with sufficient time to allow onboarding to be completed prior to the shift start time.

Please ensure you thoroughly review your chosen nurse's profile prior to deciding to book them in for the shift. To do this, simply select their name.
