CareRev, the on-demand workforce platform purpose-built for acute care, announced the launch of the Available Now feature, a breakthrough feature that gives hospitals real-time access to clinicians who are actively on standby and ready to work. Unlike traditional shift postings, Available Now taps into a dynamic pool of healthcare professionals who have opted in to be immediately deployable — enabling facilities to fill last-minute gaps faster than ever before.
When faced with last-minute shift cancellations, health systems and hospitals can avoid gaps in staff, ensuring quality patient care and operational efficiency. Additionally, healthcare professionals gain flexible work opportunities that fit their schedules and create supplemental earning potential. In CareRev’s app, healthcare professionals can declare their availability across the upcoming 24-72 hours. In-app priority push notifications then alert professionals of open shifts based on their self-declared availability. Shifts come with a slight pay boost and guaranteed wages if canceled by the facility, giving professionals added incentive to claim them.
According to Hallmark’s 2025 Healthcare Workforce Trends: A Deep Dive, 96% of healthcare leaders agree that offering flexibility and autonomy in scheduling will support nurse engagement. CareRev’s Available Now feature is driving healthcare professional satisfaction and engagement by offering increased work opportunities, with the possibility of bonuses. After working three Available Now shifts, 93% of professionals reported being satisfied with the feature, and 85% of professionals said they are extremely satisfied. Among healthcare professionals piloting the Available Now feature:
