In plain terms
How Expa sources clinicians for home health and hospice
Expa is an AI-powered healthcare recruiting and clinician sourcing platform. It identifies licensed clinicians who are in-market, verifies their contact details, runs outreach over email, SMS and LinkedIn until they reply, screens the ones who respond, and books interviews with the candidates you approve.
Home health and hospice are not building jobs. The care happens in patients' homes spread across a territory, so every hire is really a coverage decision, and an open role shows up as visits that are not getting made. The clinicians who do this work well tend to be a specific group: people who want the autonomy of driving between homes, charting on their own and using their judgment without a charge nurse nearby. That autonomy is what pulls some clinicians off the hospital floor, but it also means the pool is narrower than the full list of everyone who holds a license, and the ones who want it are usually already employed. Expa reaches them directly, over email, SMS and LinkedIn, near each territory you are trying to cover.
Hospice adds something most roles do not have. Patients and families can need support at any hour, so the work carries an on-call rhythm and a real emotional weight, and the right hire is someone who actively wants that rather than someone who finds out about it on day one. Expa is explicit about the nature of the role in its outreach, searches by credential so you can filter on hospice and palliative certification, home health experience, therapy licenses or nurse practitioner licensure, and filters by distance so the shortlist for a territory is made up of clinicians who could actually make the drive. For an agency with several branches, each location gets its own local search rather than a single pooled list.
Why home health and hospice roles stay open
Every hire is really a coverage decision
Home health and hospice care happen in patients' homes across a territory, not down one hallway, so an open role is a gap in geographic coverage. When a nurse leaves a county, the visits in that county either get absorbed by clinicians already stretched thin or they do not get made, which is why these seats feel urgent the moment someone gives notice.
The clinicians who thrive here are a specific kind
Field work asks for people who are comfortable driving between homes, charting on their own and making judgment calls without a charge nurse two doors down. That autonomy is exactly what draws some clinicians away from the hospital floor, but it also narrows the pool, because not everyone who is licensed wants to work that way, and the ones who do are usually already employed somewhere nearby.
Hospice adds an on-call dimension most roles do not have
Hospice patients and families need support at any hour, so the work carries an on-call rhythm and an emotional weight that not every clinician is suited to or looking for. Finding someone who wants that, and who lives close enough to respond, means reaching people directly rather than waiting for the right person to answer a job post.

Questions
Why is it so hard to staff a home health agency?
Home health competes for the same licensed nurses and therapists as the hospital, the skilled nursing building and the hospice across town, and the clinicians who want field work are a narrower group than the broader licensed pool. On top of that, the right hire has to actually live close enough to cover the visits you need covered. A job post rarely reaches them, because the people you want are usually already working somewhere. Reaching them takes direct outreach near each territory, which is what Expa does.
Can Expa find clinicians who want field work instead of a hospital floor?
Yes, and that is often the point. Expa describes the role in plain terms, including the autonomy, the visit schedule and the territory, then reaches out to licensed clinicians in that area over email, SMS and LinkedIn. The clinicians who respond are the ones drawn to working independently in patients' homes rather than on a unit, which is exactly who a home health or hospice agency is trying to reach.
Do you source for hospice specifically, including the on-call side?
Yes. Hospice roles carry an on-call rhythm and an emotional weight that not every clinician is looking for, so Expa is explicit about that in the outreach rather than surprising someone later. That means the people who reply already understand the nature of the work, whether they are hospice nurses, aides or behavioral health clinicians supporting families and bereavement.
How does Expa handle the geographic coverage problem?
Expa searches around each location separately and filters candidates by distance, so the shortlist for a given territory is made up of clinicians who could realistically make the drive to those homes. A hire 50 miles away who would never cover your visits does not help you, so Expa does not surface them. For an agency with several branches, each one gets its own local search rather than a single pooled list.
What credentials can Expa filter on for home health and hospice?
Expa searches by credential, so it can filter on RN or LPN licensure, hospice and palliative certification, home health experience, therapy licenses for PT, OT and speech, and nurse practitioner licensure, along with distance from the territory you are staffing. If a role needs a specific certification, you say so when you describe it and Expa screens for it.
Can Expa help an agency hiring across several branches or counties?
Yes. Because Expa runs a separate search around each location, a multi-branch agency gets a local shortlist per territory instead of one list that mixes clinicians who could never cover the visits. If you are hiring for six or more roles across your branches, the roles selector sends you to book a demo so we can set it up across your footprint.
Do I have to do the sourcing myself?
No. You describe the role and approve a shortlist. Expa does the searching, the outreach, the follow-up and the screening, then books interviews with the candidates you approve. It takes about ten minutes of your time.
How fast will I see candidates?
A slate of interested, contactable clinicians within 48 hours of starting, often within 24. Time to hire from there depends on your interview process.
How much does Expa cost?
You can start free. For ongoing hiring, Expa pilots start at $6,000 for three months and cover all your open roles, with no per-placement fees. For comparison, a contingency agency placing a single clinician typically charges 15% to 22% of first-year salary.
