Everything you need to know about Build-A-Bundles!

ShiftMed is excited to introduce Build-A-Bundles, a new feature that helps you maximize your schedule and earnings by building or requesting your own customized Bundle (long-term assignment).


What are Bundles at ShiftMed?

A Bundle is a long-term assignment designed to provide reliable coverage for facilities while maintaining flexibility for you.

You’ll general commit to a predictable weekly schedule, giving you the opportunity to build a routine and become familiar with the team and their workflow.


What is the difference between a Shift Bundle and a Build-A-Bundle?

A Shift Bundle allows you to claim a set of pre-scheduled shifts at a single facility in one action, based on availability in the Bundle Shift feed.

Build-A-Bundle allows you to create and request a customized Bundle (long-term assignment) by setting your preferred bundle parameters at a facility.


Enhanced with Guaranteed Bundles

To protect your income from cancellations, we are proud to offer Guaranteed Bundles. These bundles include Guaranteed Shifts®.

  • If a guaranteed shift within the bundle is cancelled by the facility, you will still be paid for the scheduled hours.

  • Note: Not all shifts in a bundle may be guaranteed. Check the bundle details in the app to see how many shifts carry the guarantee.


Eligibility Requirements

  • Healthcare Professionals who have unlocked with specific facilities matching their Verified PL or specialties.


How It Works

  1. Select a Facility
    Choose from the list of available facilities. Please note that options may be limited at this time, but additional facilities will be added in the future.

  2. Select Your License/Specialty
    Choose your professional license and specialty.

  3. Choose Your Shift Preference
    Indicate your preferred shift (ex: day, night).

  4. Select a Unit (if applicable)
    Choose the unit you would like to work in, if options are available.

  5. Choose Assignment Length
    Select the duration of your assignment.


Bundle Requirements

After selecting your preferences, you’ll be taken to the Bundle Requirements screen. Here, you can review:

  • Your selected options

  • The corresponding pay rates for each shift


Select Your Dates

Choose the days you’re available to work.

Keep in mind:

  • Weeks follow ShiftMed’s pay schedule (Saturday–Friday)

  • You’ll receive an error if a full week is skipped

  • Some days may be unavailable if you already have a shift scheduled

Once selected, you’ll see your Bundle Estimate, showing your potential earnings.

Tips:

  • Select more availability to increase your chances of approval

  • Only choose shifts you can realistically commit to

  • More flexibility = more visibility to facilities

Example: If you’re available all week, select all days - you won’t necessarily be scheduled every day, but it improves your chances for approval.
