The Holiday Hustle is Here: Your Guide to Making the Most of 1.5x Pay Holiday Shifts

Holiday pay is calling your name! We're talking 1.5x your regular rate for shifts during Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, and MLK Day. Whether you're saving up for something special, tackling those gift lists, or building your financial cushion for the new year, these premiums add up fast.

Holiday shifts give you the chance to expand your skills, work in different environments, and build relationships with facilities that could lead to more opportunities down the line. Every shift is a chance to learn, grow, and show what you're capable of. Facilities need you this holiday season to ensure patients are getting the care they need.

How to Maximize Your Holiday Shift Success

Apply early. Seriously, don't wait. Holiday shifts fill up faster than you'd think, and facilities are already planning their schedules. The earlier you get your applications in (we recommend 2+ weeks), the better your chances of securing the shifts you want.

Cast a wider net. If you're not getting instant acceptance on one shift, apply to multiple opportunities. More applications = more possibilities. Flexibility is your friend during the holidays.

Show up strong. Be on time (actually, be ten minutes early). Don't call out unless it's truly unavoidable. Facilities remember the clinicians who are reliable during the holidays, and that reputation can open doors for you.

Watch for Instant Accept shifts. Keep your eye out for these opportunities in the app as they're your fast track to confirmed holiday shifts without the wait.

Don't Miss Out on Holiday Perks

We're going all out this season with special promotions just for you. Check your email regularly and opt into push notifications. We're planning raffles, shift drops, point reductions, Instagram giveaways, and more surprises throughout the holiday period. Think of it as our way of saying thank you for being there when it matters most.

The Bottom Line

Facilities are counting on you this holiday season, and we want to make sure you're set up for success. Higher pay (1.5x!), valuable experience, and the chance to be part of something bigger. That's what the holiday hustle is all about.

Your patients need you. Your wallet will thank you. Ready to claim your holiday shifts? Open the ‘Find Work’ tab and start applying today.
