Orientation Details
You must complete the hospital's required online learning and quiz prior to being able to claim orientation shifts.
Once all required credentials have been verified and online learning has been completed, you may email LTACRecruiting@shiftmed.com to schedule an orientation shift.
You are also required to provide a headshot photo (with plain white background) prior to orientation for hospital access and badging requirements. Failure to do so will result in being unable to access hospital or complete job duties requiring medication access until completed. It may also lead to cancellation of the orientation shift. Send photo to ltacrecruiting@shiftmed.com
ShiftMed Attendance Policy & Expectations
Clocking in and out:
You are required to clock in and out for every shift using the ShiftMed app.
Missed Punches:
If you are unable to use the app, you must promptly request a missed punch form from the Care Team to correct your time.
Cancelling a Shift:
If you need to cancel a shift, you must report it in the ShiftMed app.
Attendance Expectations:
While ShiftMed operates as an “on-demand” or “PRN” platform and may categorize attendance events - such as call-outs, cancellations, and unscheduled shifts - using a weighted system (see more details here), our hospital partners maintain high attendance expectations and may consider any change to a claimed shift to be an attendance violation.
Failure to adhere to these procedures, or patterns of excessive lateness or cancellations, may impact your future shift opportunities at all Community facilities.
