Atlas All Access

This week on Atlas All Access, Kurt Chase returns to the home office to discuss what's going on in the Lone Star state. Exciting things have been happening in the Dallas office and Kurt shares with Rich some of the differences there are in establishing a new Atlas MedStaff office in the Texas region. So throw on your cowboy boots, your big, shiny belt buckle, and your 10-gallon hat, and listen to what things are in store as we expand to another market on this week's Atlas All Access.

🎰 Just when you thought Rich would never allow Braden back into the recording studio, they both are back from their trip to Las Vegas to talk about TravCon 2021.

With TravCon 2021 done and gone, RIch and Braden take a look at what we can expect from Atlas MedStaff going forward with TravCon and Rich has an exciting announcement that pertains to just that.

They also discuss what are some of the bigger concerns in the industry today including compliance and vaccine requirements.

Also, stick around past the credits to finally get Rich's opinion on whether a hot dog is a sandwich or a taco. You will be surprised. I was.

Where do you start? This is a question that comes up a number of times.

We chat with Braden Boex, Atlas recruiter, about where you should start, what you should be doing, and the steps along the way.

After that, we get into some other fun stuff on this episode of Atlas All Access.

August is National Immunization Awareness Month. Let's Talk about it.

At Atlas MedStaff service is the very core of what we do here and military service is something we hold in very high regard. Being that Atlas is certified veteran owned by NaVOBA (National Veteran Owned Business Association), finding out that one of our nurse recruiters was a military veteran is incredibly important to us. So this week on Atlas All Access we talk to Army veteran Alicia Carosella.

From running the helicopter landing zone for President Obama to being the first female soldier to serve on the Torkham Border (Torkham is a major border crossing between the Pakistani city of Torkham and Afghanistan), Alicia Carosella has an incredible history of service to our country.

Now she wants to serve you as your Atlas nurse recruiter. To learn more about Alicia Carosella: https://tinyurl.com/r8xrhpjf

We love the Toys for Tots program. It's easy to get behind an organization where the entire goal is to spread Christmas Joy to a child.

And unlike some organizations, you know that 100 percent of that toy you donate will go to a kid in need. Since it's run by the Marines, your donations go directly back to the kids, not operating costs.

This year, our traveling healthcare pros helped make our fifth annual Toys for Tots drive better than ever. We collected more than 2,000 toys that will go directly to the kids.

And YOU helped so much. You sent in toys, ordered mountains of gifts, and even contributed cash that we spent for more toys to add to the growing piles.

It's an amazing feeling to see the Marines show up to collect the toys and realize they should have brought a bigger truck. And then watch them take multiple trips to haul all those toys away.

Thank you for helping to spread some Christmas cheer and joy during a very rough year. Merry Christmas.

How do you take an entire company, effectively close down an office, and begin company-wide work-from-home policies overnight?

We discuss the hidden benefits working from home brings to our team, and how it allows us the flexibility to communicate with our travelers around their covid-era schedules.

We may miss the office and those random coffee chats -- and it's hard to replace those in-person activities -- but there's a lot to be said about the freedom of working from home, or traveling the country with your laptop handy, as many traveling healthcare professionals can attest.

Some of the best benefits of working from home include: no commute, improved productivity, working around your schedule, keeping costs down, efficiency and health, and location independence.

Find out how your travel healthcare recruiter is still out here working for you, only now we do it fully remote from our homes or the open road.
