“March to 100” Sharp HealthCare Employee Referral Opportunity

On January 15, 2023, Sharp HealthCare is launching a referral bonus campaign opportunity. Sharp Healthcare employees have an opportunity to refer external full time and part time experienced clinical bedside registered nurses to any of our four acute-care hospitals or three specialty hospitals. The employee opportunity is a $2,500 dollar award for referring an RN who successfully completes our hiring process into one of the clinical nurse bedside RN positions. A team, including the Sharp HRTM recruitment and payroll depts will continually evaluate RN postings and referrals to ensure a seamless process that supports our commitment to the march toward hiring 100 RNs to Sharp HealthCare.

Why is it important?

At Sharp, our goal is to offer quality care and services that set community standards and exceed patient’s expectations and are provided in a caring, convenient, cost effective and accessible manor. Quality plays an important role in everything we do- and at the core is our RN workforce.

• Maintain our ability to offer a quality care in a cost-effective manner.
• Honor our commitment to hire registered nurse to ensure current and future workforce needs are met.
• Recognize the important role that nurses play in transforming lives of patients and their families.

What success looks like?

100 Hospital based bedside clinical bedside RNs are hired, onboarded, and caring for patients.

What we need from you?
