Clipboard

Healthcare facilities can post available shifts on Clipboard Health’s digital platform, and nurses can sign up on an ad-hoc, no-commitment basis. This means hospitals get the professional bodies they need in the room, and nurses can better adjust their schedules around what their circumstances require - be that childcare commitments, or periods of psychological recuperation.

Clipboard Health is, therefore, far more operationally complex than rival nursing recruitment sites like Incredible Health or HealthStaff Solutions, which go down the more traditional route of offering permanent job listings - and this is to their credit. The answer to increasing burnout isn’t to offer more employment, but instead to fundamentally change the nature of the employment on the table. In this way, Clipboard Health might be making real strides on an important issue. And investors like Sequoia Capital seem to think so at least, with investment in Clipboard Health surpassing $94 million as of 2023's second quarter.
