RS Healthcare

What RS Healthcare does

RS Healthcare (legally RMS Recruitment Consultants Inc.), incorporated in Florida and headquartered at 7901 4th Street N, STE 8068, Saint Petersburg, is a private healthcare staffing firm providing travel nursing, local nursing, allied health, per diem, locum, non-clinical, and permanent placement/executive search services across all 50 states. Founded in 2013 and operating under CEO Robert Smith, the company serves two customer sides: healthcare facilities (700+ partners including hospitals, health systems, surgery centers, rehabilitation centers, skilled nursing facilities, and dialysis centers) and healthcare professionals (a stated database of 1–2 million clinicians). The platform is delivered through the third-party LaborEdge Nexus technology stack (nexus-leap.laboredge.com) for job search, candidate signup, credentialing workflow, and matching; marketing materials also reference use of "AI-driven processes" in clinician sourcing and marketing campaigns. The company is Joint Commission Gold Seal Accredited, NMSDC certified as a Minority Business Enterprise (2024), and registered as a federal contractor via FedLinks. The go-to-market is sales-led, with dedicated account managers recruiting both facility buyers and clinicians, supported by an executive team that includes a CFO, CLO, CTO, and three VPs (Business Intelligence, Workforce Solutions, Strategic Partnerships).

Revenue is generated through professional-services placement fees on hourly bill rates charged to facilities for travel and per diem assignments, plus margins on permanent placements. Pricing is quote-based, varies by specialty, location, assignment duration, and demand, and is not publicly disclosed; the firm emphasizes "highest pay in the industry" for clinicians and offers benefits (health/dental/vision from day one, weekly direct deposit, housing support, multi-state licensure navigation) as part of its value proposition. Marketing channels span LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, the company website, an email/SMS program, and a self-serve candidate portal on the LaborEdge platform, while facility-side distribution runs through direct sales account managers.
