12 Things You Need to Know About the Nextaff Franchise
Opens Newest Location
1. In recent years, Nextaff has been opening more franchised locations around the United States. One of its most recent offices opened in January 2020 in Peoria, Illinois. This Nextaff location is owned and operated by Tom Moreland.
2. The new office provides healthcare and nurse staffing solutions to healthcare facilities in Peoria and throughout Illinois. Moreland brings a master’s in health services administration and 21 years of long-term care experience to Nextaff Peoria.
3. Moreland said, “After I opened Nextaff Des Moines in 2018, our reputation for long-term nurse staffing quickly spread across the Mississippi River, and employers and healthcare professionals in the Peoria market began reaching out to us for help. We’re thrilled to now have a dedicated office in Illinois that leverages the Nextaff method in connecting leading healthcare employers with talented nurses, allied healthcare professionals and administrative talent.”
4. “Nextaff’s operating model provides everything my team needs to run a successful staffing franchise, while fueling success for our clients and candidates,” continued Moreland. “Whether you’re an employer with an urgent need for licensed, screened nurses, or a healthcare professional looking for high-paying opportunities to flourish, one call to Nextaff does it all.”
5. Nextaff offers a proprietary recruiting method called X-FACTOR™, which combines hiring methodologies that are statistically proven to outperform what typical staffing agency competitors and HR departments traditionally do. This methodology, combined with a robust back-office support structure, allows a staffing franchise office many distinct advantages over someone looking to start their own staffing agency.
