What is ShiftRx?
ShiftRx is a platform designed to address the healthcare staffing shortage. It connects verified healthcare providers with healthcare facilities that need coverage for PRN (as-needed) shifts, part-time, and full-time roles.
Is ShiftRx an AI pharmacy staffing platform?
Yes, ShiftRx uses a mix of AI and smart filtering to match qualified pharmacy professionals with work based on license, location, availability, and facility requisites. At its core it's streamlined staffing—not with generic algorithms, but with custom, real-world healthcare logistics.
Does ShiftRx help with last-minute pharmacy shift coverage?
Absolutely. We designed ShiftRx to enable facilities: this means filling urgent, last-minute pharmacy shifts without relying on expensive staffing agencies. On our PRN marketplace, facilities post and fill open shifts in hours, not days.
What types of roles are available on ShiftRx?
ShiftRx offers a wide array of roles across the pharmacy spectrum—from retail pharmacists and hospital pharmacists to IV/sterile compounding technicians, long-term care, and telepharmacy roles. Whether you're looking for PRN shifts or full-time positions, you'll match with flexible opportunities in your field.
Why is ShiftRx better than a traditional pharmacy staffing agency?
More flexible, more affordable simple as that. We eliminate recruiter fees and agency markups, and give facilities full control over who they hire, when, and at what rate. Our motives are your motives.
How does ShiftRx support pharmacy staffing?
ShiftRx facilitates the facility. We make it easy for owners and hiring managers to find qualified pharmacists and pharmacy technicians for short-term and/or long-term roles. Need certain licenses or certifications? Pharmacists and techs can only match with shifts that match their skills and availability.
Is ShiftRx sustainable? How is ShiftRx helping the world?
Yes—ShiftRx is built on the sustainable, mission-driven focus of improving healthcare access, reducing burnout, and making better use of the world's numerous licensed professionals. We cut out the middleman. Instead of expensive, inefficient staffing agencies, we use smart software to connect pharmacy providers with real-time demand, reducing coverage gaps and ensuring patients get the care they need. By helping pharmacies and health systems staff smarter—not just harder—we're taking on the healthcare staffing crisis. Our platform supports equitable access to care, empowers providers to choose flexible work, and reduces waste in the system. We think the staffing gap is a public health issue, not just a business problem. It's time to change.

What is ShiftRx Careers? How do I access it?
ShiftRx Careers is a job board designed to transform the way pharmacy professionals and facilities connect. We simplify hiring by offering robust job posting tools for part-time & full-time rolls, connecting facilities with verified pharmacy professionals from an extensive network, and accelerating hiring timelines. Facilities can set their qualifications when posting to ensure they get applicants who are fit their exact needs! Facilities can view their applicants, see their profile, resumes, etc and either accept or reject them. Accepting means you are able to message with that applicant and coordinate a time to interview them!
How does ShiftRx work for pharmacy professionals?
ShiftRx is the easy button for picking up shifts and finding full-time roles—without dealing with staffing agencies. Once you sign up and complete your profile, you can:
- Browse shifts posted by pharmacies in your area (or remote roles if that's your thing).
- Apply instantly—view the requirements, no recruiter games, just direct connections.
- Get hired & get paid. Facilities are notified when you apply, they will review your application and hire you directly.
You will be notified if you are approved for a shift! Make sure you update your notification preferences.
Whether you want per diem gigs, part-time flexibility, or a full-time career move, ShiftRx puts you in control of your work.
When will I receive pay? How do I get paid?
Once you complete your shift and the facility owner confirms your hours, your payment will be processed. You'll get paid through your stripe account – Typically, payments from Stripe for completed shifts are usually processed within 2 business days but it just depends on your bank! Payments are made via Stripe and can be tracked in your Earnings Dashboard.
Are there any prerequisites or qualifications required to apply for certain shifts?
Some shifts require specific licenses, certifications, or experience based on the facility's needs. When browsing shifts, you'll see any required qualifications listed upfront. If you meet them, you're good to apply. If not, you might want to check out other shifts or see if preferred (but not required) qualifications apply so you can still throw your hat in the ring.
Where is the facility located? Are there remote shifts?
ShiftRx offers a variety of shifts from on-site to remote in all specialties. You will see the facility location on a map before applying. It will specify if a shift is on-site or remote before you apply. Once you're accepted for a shift, all relevant details—including location, time, facility contacts, and any special instructions—will be accessible in your "Upcoming Shifts" tab.
How does ShiftRx's pay compare to other per diem jobs or staffing agencies?
We're cutting out the middleman (aka expensive staffing agencies) so facilities can find last minute coverage at a cheaper rate. ShiftRx offers competitive, transparent rates with no agency markups. Facilities set their own rates and can see the amount you will owe BEFORE posting. You have all the control. You decide who you want to hire and what you want to pay with ShiftRx!
How does ShiftRx ensure the quality and reliability of the temporary staff provided?
We don't just let anyone in the door. Every provider on ShiftRx is verified and background-checked to ensure they meet licensing and certification requirements for PRN shifts. Plus, facilities can rate and review providers after each shift, helping maintain a high standard of reliability and performance. If a provider isn't meeting expectations, you won't have to work with them again—our system prioritizes trusted professionals for your shifts.
What is the cancellation policy for providers?
We have ratings in place for providers and facilities. If a provider or facility cancels at the last minute, it will affect their rating on the platform. If a provider no-calls and/or no-shows, their account will be suspended. They will be able to request a review through ShiftRx to get the suspension removed.
