The company contracts candidates through a 3-step selection process requiring at least two years of travel experience, face-to-face interviews, and in-depth profiling and onboarding tests. It operates on a flexible contract model offering 36, 40, and 48 hour contracts running from 8 weeks to longer durations, with weekend, call coverage, and daily staffing options.

The go-to-market is sales-led via direct relationships with hospital administrators and OR managers, supported by an organic social presence on LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and Medium, plus an OR Manager Conference 2023 community forum. The company is privately held with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or named customer logos, and serves a US-only market.
