- At GapNurse, we are on a mission to overcome ongoing staffing challenges and revive the health industry. Our FOCUS is and has always been - SIMPLIFICATION. We have developed a complex technology that is simple to use and caters to both existing employees and independent contractors available to care for people in need. Our goal is to provide nurses and health workers with a comfortable and stress-free working environment. We find the best matches between licensed caregivers and the facilities that need them. Nurses using the GapNurse Mobile App can select their schedule and choose assignments that match their skills, experience, and comfort level. The platform makes it easier for these Clinicians to choose jobs based on their credentials, licenses, and skills. They can store these credentials on our platform in their secure vault for easy retrieval when needed. The technology allows providers to lower their recruiting and retention costs while offering clinicians higher hourly pay and even same-day pay. Nurses gain more experience and have an opportunity to discover specializations as they become introduced to various medical disciplines. Nurses gain access to all these features through the GapNurse mobile app available on Google Play or the Apple Store. For Facility Managers, the GapNurse platform offers a proprietary portal for posting assignments to both employees and thoroughly vetted independent contractors and matched as shifts require. The distribution of orientation and training materials happens at the speed of light, and employee response eliminates employee favoritism concerns. Facility Managers easily meet or exceed required staffing ratios by clinicians who want to work. The app also features a geolocation service that makes it easy for a nurse, who may be unfamiliar with an assignment location, to get to the site without hassle. For ages, nurses have been the face of patient care. But the work can be physically and emotionally exhausting and often takes a toll on their personal lives. Although staffing agencies have traditionally filled short-term staffing needs, they've failed to evolve. These agencies, together with a global nursing shortage, are causing financial and regulatory hardships for governments and healthcare employers, adding stress to the lives of most nurses and the people they care for. Before the Covid pandemic caregivers were burnt out and leaving nursing in record numbers. By 2030, more than 50 million Americans will require some type of severe long-term service and support but 75% of employers in post-acute care (nursing homes, long-term care centers, home healthcare, hospice) don't believe they have the financial ability to make it to 2022 unless something changes. Our MVP was completed in December of 2019. At that time, Covid wasn't recognized as a problem. Then, all of a sudden, Covid hit hard. The facilities we were working with went into lockdown, but the conversations continued. We were contacted by government officials. They'd heard we were out there, helping get nurses where and when they were needed most, but we were only in an MVP stage. Together we realized that if something isn't done when another crisis comes along, people will be in a lot of trouble. We also realized that we can't limit ourselves to post-acute care down the road, but we had to start somewhere. From there, we pulled our resources together and completed the full-scale development of what is GapNurse today. The build was completed in April 2021 and we started early marketing efforts in May. Today, post-acute care facilities are using the GapNurse platform to replace staffing agencies because of the cost savings, better staff retention and improved patient outcomes due to better communications and training.
