Let’s discuss the rights, access and free reign and all access/no restrictions to the app ALL facility’s have compared to the severe punishments, restrictions to app that clinicians have

[Anonymous]

Facility’s can, do and will demoralize, flag/negatively report (maliciously and with I’ll intent) a clinicians reputation with other staff members, participating facilities across the entire NURSA plateform. This includes ALL states! 
 

However, clinicians are limited to what we can see, access to app features we’re blocked from. Comments and reputations by facility’s are not shared with clinicians and there’s no intent to. Clinicians are subject to an unlawful 14 day ban for a cancellation. We are told we are 1099’s, independent contractors etc. But we are not. We are hired on as per diem, and qualify for the same rights as an employee. This is a problem on a state and federal level. This is not disclosed to clinicians instead what we believe to be true is exactly the opposite. 
 

the NOTIFACATIONS of being scheduled ARE NIT related to clinicians and again, us clinicians are punished severely, treated like a Capital Crime! We do not get cancellation pay, we do t get paid at all  solely, to not fault of our own, but because the facility’s DONT DO THERE SHIFT REPORTS! The word for that is wage theft, inaccurate IRS reporting for the facility’s benefits that consequently is suffered by the clinicians and the unpaid wages are reported on the clinicians income. That we have to pay for. 
 

I’m not ok with this practice and not OK with how it is tolerated and acceptable period. 
 

I encourage everyone to review the IRS miss classification section of independent contractor vs Employee  on the IRS website. Review the federal and state labor laws, OSHA and the EEOC websites.

Hello! 

 

If there are instances where you feel you have been mistreated, we would love to learn more about it. Send me a private DM and we can look into the behavior. Facilities can share internal notes within their own facility ONLY, but these notes do not go to other facilities. These are internal notes that aren’t useful to a clinician. A few other clinicians voiced their want for useful feedback from the facility, you can add any input to the idea forum here!

 

What features are you referring to? The app does look different for facilities vs. clinicians since it is used in different functions. 

 

We are always reevaluating our processes and policies to ensure we keep improving and providing the best experience for our users, including the 14-day ban. You can add details of your experience to what other clinicians have said on the topic in this idea forum.

 

In order to use the app, every user agrees to the terms of being an independent contractor with the facility, and every clinician completes a 1099 in order to be paid. You can read them here: nursa.com/terms/. If you have any discrepancies in 1099 vs. employee conversation we'd love to hear. 

 

Are you having issues with your notifications if you are scheduled?

 

If a shift is completed and a clinician completes their shift report (which has to be done before the facility shift report), a facility has 48 hours to verify their shift report or it is automatically verified, and the clinician is paid for the time that they worked.

 

If you have any concerns about your shift reports’ statuses, please reach out to support at 801-695-6909 or at support@nursa.com. If the shift is canceled, there is no shift report since no work was done. You are able to request your pay stubs at any time. We only report what is deposited into a clinician's account, can you clarify what unpaid wages you are referring to?

 

We would love to continue to discuss your concerns!
