Once your license is verified, ALL of your prior requests will be pushed through and you may be hired for a shift sooner than expected. Be sure to check your schedule in the Nursa App to know what is requested and what you have been scheduled.

If we cannot find your license, you will be asked to double check the number to ensure it is accurate. If you have any other issues, please contact support at 801-695-9609 or support.nursa.com.
