The Importance of Setting Your Staffy Shift Radius

One of our most prevalent questions we receive from Staffy App users is being able to see a wider variety of shifts. Our main recommendation is to expand the shift radius in the app. It is our goal to make picking up the shifts you want as effortless as possible.

What are the key advantages of expanding your shift radius we hear you ask? By adjusting your travel distance with the Staffy App, you unlock access to a broader spectrum of available shifts. For example, a Registered Nurse with a limited shift radius of 20 kilometers might inadvertently miss out on a shift that was 22 kilometers away. This small adjustment to a 30 kilometer radius would allow you to experience an array of different shift opportunities. Increasing your shift radius is a great way to see more shift availability and enter a new shift environment you may have never considered before. If you have been having trouble seeing shifts in the app or are looking for a different facility type, expanding your shift radius may be the solution for you. The steps to expand you shift radius are a lot simpler than you may think but there are some key details that will help you be successful!
