SkyBridge Healthcare

What SkyBridge Healthcare does

SkyBridge Healthcare is a Tampa, Florida-based private travel healthcare staffing firm founded around 2004 that places clinicians—registered nurses, LPNs/LVNs, CNAs, physical and occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, imaging and respiratory allied health professionals, and laboratory specialists—at hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, rehabilitation centers, and outpatient clinics across all 50 U.S. states. The company's core product is a travel healthcare staffing platform with a dedicated single-recruiter model in which each clinician is paired with one recruiter from initial contact through assignment completion, supported by the AbleTeams Candidate Portal for onboarding/credentialing and native iOS/Android mobile applications for assignment management and timecard submission. The business model is transaction-fee-based: SkyBridge earns a markup on the bill rate charged to healthcare facilities for contracted clinicians' labor, with pay packages structured weekly (e.g., $1,625–$3,400/week for travel RNs; $1,500–$3,100/week for allied health; $1,375–$2,750/week for therapy; $24.61–$52.00/hour for LPN/LVN), supplemented by tax-free housing and meal stipends, day-one benefits, and a $500-per-referral clinician referral program. The company holds Joint Commission Gold Seal of Approval certification, is BluePipes Verified, and reports 10,000+ cumulative clinician placements and a 4.8/5 Google review rating.
