WHAT'S NEW

Carecor Now Offers Full and Part time Job Opportunities!

You may ask:
* Isn't this unusual for a Healthcare Staffing Agency to offer guaranteed hours?
* Isn't this difficult for Carecor to pre-schedule all of the Healthcare Providers?
* Do the Facilities still call at the last minute? 

The answer to all of these questions is yes.
It is unusual and atypical for an Agency to offer guaranteed shifts. It can be difficult for Carecor to pre-schedule our Healthcare Providers in advance and yes the Facilities still call Carecor at the last minute.

So why are we moving towards this model?
The answer is because it is better for our Healthcare Providers.  
* It offers a better work life balance.
* Our Healthcare Providers know in advance what shift they will be working.
* Our Healthcare Providers receive a four-week schedule, four weeks in advance.
* Our Healthcare Providers know the geographical area/locations they will be working in and which Facilities are included in this area.

Will Carecor ever offer casual job opportunities again?
As patient care needs change and as scheduling needs change, there is always that possibility.

If you are looking for a part time or full time opportunity, if you are flexible to work all shifts, if you are mobile to travel to a variety of different locations, Carecor is the place for you.
Don't wait, contact us today!  These vacancies do fill up quickly and then the job postings are closed.
Check our job opportunities on our website at www.carecor.com 

What can you expect from Carecor?
* Your schedule 4 weeks in advance.
* A description of your expected duties.
* Access to Policies and Procedures.
* A complete and comprehensive Handbook.
* A complete list of all of the Facilities we currently work with and locations.
* Who you should check in with and report to. 
* Who you can contact at Carecor if you run into any challenges or if you have any questions.
