So if “Sara” picks up a shift on Thursday that is for the coming Saturday morning, and I get a SOS text for that same shift Friday night. You gone tell me I’m going to be making the same as “SARA”? This was my first shift picking up on Nursa in over a year! Last time I checked last min shifts got paid more or a bonus! They then turned around and sent a SOS for Sunday morning for a shift that had already started and the pay was THE SAME! 😂 how is Nursa allowing this! I make more money at my regular facility I’m hired at!

National Nurses United (NNU), the nation’s largest union of registered nurses, announced its endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris for president. Some of the reasons the union provided include the following: Vice President Harris supports working people and families, stands up for union workers, is a powerful advocate in key healthcare fights, including the fight to defend and restore reproductive health rights, and has a career-long track record of backing legislation to protect patients and nurses. What are your thoughts? Will Kamala Harris address healthcare needs effectively and fairly? Will she have nurses' best interests in mind?

Hello everyone, my name is Tania, in las Vegas NV. New to the Nursa Community, I am currently working as an RN and have for the last 10 years. Do have a recently reactivated LPN license that had been expired for over 8 years. Decided to activate it as some partial shifts were available for LPNs in my area and it was perfect for what I was looking for. Happy to be here. Currently waiting on approval of my first few shifts. Does it usually take a while to get approve? How soon/late prior to starting the shift do you get approve for the assignment? Thanks Tania

I've been on Nursa for about a month now and I'm going to cancel my account. There are too many options in my area that are easy and professional. My issues with this app: filters are never saved, takes 12+ hours to get a response about whether I'm booked for a shift or just never getting a response, no push notifications, shifts listed in random order when you open the app, no name badges, the "total" shift payment listed does not subtract a 30min unpaid lunch break. It doesn't need to be this complicated to find work, no matter how competitive the wages are. App developers, I recommend looking at apps like Clipboard and Teambridge. I'm sure there are other great examples, these are just the ones I use personally.

Hourly seems to be LOWERED across the board
Adele Ramona Patane posted a question in General Questions
I’ve been w Nursa over 2 years. I loved the competitive hourly pay I used to tell other nurses about it. Now, it’s disheartening to see that Nursa has now incorporated almost same hourly pay across the board for diff licensing. There are no more bonuses now and SOS texts don’t offer incentives like they use to. What happened? I may have to go back to a regular 8-12 hour nursing job. 😭 -
I saw a facility I haven't seen very often or they are relatively new. Their facility photo is a photo of the Carnegie Village Retirement Village in Belton, Missouri. Carnegie Nursing Home is a far cry from that 5 star facility. If anything that made me laugh, but it is a bit deceiving.

At the end of every shift, we get asked to rate and comments on the facility just worked at. Where do our rating and comments go? I would love to see what the facilities get rated from other Nursa workers. Just like support had told me, we get rated but we're unable to see our rating from facilities just yet.
