LOCUM TENENS | CONTRACT-TO-HIRE
DIRECT PLACEMENT | ER CONTRACT TEAMS
We've Been at the Bedside
Our team has direct experience in healthcare environments. We know your world — not just what's on your CV. We understand what your day actually looks like.
Every Detail Upfront
We give you the full picture — facility, schedule, and compensation — before you apply. No vague calls. No runaround. Make an informed decision before you commit to anything.
Your Advocate, Always
You get a dedicated placement partner. One person who knows your goals, advocates for your interests, and stays in contact well beyond placement.
You deserve a placement partner genuinely invested in your success — not just the next opening.
You've heard the stories. Submitted without consent. Ghosted after the interview. Called with a "great opportunity" that turns out to be nothing more than a placeholder job with no real details.
That's not how we work.
At Inspire, our team brings deep experience in clinical settings. They understand what you do all day — not just what's on your CV. When we call, we already know the facility, the schedule, and the compensation range.
We give you everything up front. We never submit your name without your permission. And when a position doesn't work out, we'll call you and explain why.
Whether you're looking for locum tenens work to fit around your current role, a contract-to-hire that lets both sides find the right long-term fit, a permanent placement in the right practice, or a dedicated ER contract position — we'll find what actually works for your career and your life.
Four Ways to Work with Inspire
Every physician's situation is different. We match the right opportunity to where you are in your career —
and where you want to go.
Locum Tenens
NATIONWIDE
Time-limited contracts with flexible schedules and competitive pay — often 2–4x standard rates. Can be done alongside your current role. Travel, lodging, and rental car included.
Contract to Hire
NATIONWIDE
Standard 90-day contracts that give you and the facility the chance to find the right long-term fit. Your placement partner stays connected throughout — and works with you as you move toward permanent hire status.
Direct Placement
NATIONWIDE
Permanent positions in standalone clinics and physician practices. We screen, interview, and negotiate your offer — then follow up during your first 90 days to make sure the fit is working.
ER Contract Staffing
SOUTHEASTERN US
Long-term contract positions with Inspire-managed rural emergency departments. No shift has gone unstaffed in 30 years. Schedule flexibility available.
We Don't Fill Seats. We Build Careers.
Every opportunity we present is screened for fit — clinically, culturally, and professionally.
We don't just fill shifts. We elevate the standard.
Our CEO began at the bedside. He has seen what happens when care is rushed and teams are unsupported.
That's why Inspire Medical was built differently, on direct-care experience, personal relationships, and a commitment to placing providers we would trust with our own families.
We started in rural Kentucky. Today, we staff facilities across the country. The mission has not changed. We handle every detail so you can focus on medicine.
