Matt and I have a ton of history and stories about our time at TravCon and some of the lessons we learned by going, how Matt was an early buy-in to the TravCon experience, and what someone new can expect by going to TravCon.

⛵ ⚓ ⛴️ Sometimes you just have to say, "Yes." That is what former travel nurse turned Atlas recruiter, Brad McDonald did and now he has 27 lifelong friends because of it.

After TravCon 2021, a group of travel nurses decided to take a trip to Cancun, organized mostly by Sarah Ifman. What started out as a small trip exploded into an adventure with 27 nurses.

So sometimes you just have to say yes because you never know how it will affect your life. So tune in this week to know how this all came about and learn about this epic trip that started out small and turned into a life-altering adventure.

Want to be friends with Brad as well, just follow this link and reach out. Maybe he will take you on an adventure with him and his friends. 👉 https://bit.ly/3o0LRnE

🏨 🛏️ 🍳 As more and more travelers have taken to the road, the amount of places to stay have slowly begun to fill up. Plus, most apartment buildings have issues with short-term stays that would benefit a traveler.

This is where Wyndham and their over 20 brands and over 6000 hotels becomes an option. Wyndham offers up such hotels like La Quinta, Super 8, Days Inn, etc. as locations that travel nurses can use on their assignment. Bonus, you can get an Atlas MedStaff corporate discount by reaching out to your recruiter about this option.

As things continue to grow, Wyndham is growing with it. They are building more of their Hawthorn brands (which is their extended stay brand) as well as begun building their economy extended stay, their newly formed Hotel Echo Brand.

Here to talk about all this and more is Wyndham Global Brand Director, Brian Dean. So join me in this week's Atlas All Access that starts right now. ⤵️

The year 2021 has come and gone and Atlas MedStaff was very active in its Charity Efforts. From Toys for Tots, blood drives, March of Dimes, Heartland Hope, the Mary Madeline Project, and a multitude of others, we are so proud of how much our employees have done to impact the community around the area.

This week, we talk with Non-Profit Coordinator Jamie Ryan and Director of Culture & Engagement Diane Ernatt about how Atlas gave back to our communities, how our employees helped guide those efforts, and how giving backs continues to fit into the Atlas Way.

If you are a traveler and you are about to get your flu vaccine, or are getting the COVID vaccine for the first time, or just maybe you are getting the COVID booster, you probably want to know what paperwork do you need and and which paperwork you don't.

This week, we talk with Compliance Manager Kasi Wolfert about just that and other topics like Religious and Medical exemptions on this edition of Atlas All Access.

👟 We are back with the Nike Air Zoom Pulse — the impossible-to-find shoe which is now up for restock on the Nike website. This is the shoe Nike says has been designed from the ground up for nurses and healthcare pros. So, check out the video as Rich shows you the shoe that was designed just for you and find out a way to win a pair of your own, coming soon!

🤠 🤠 🤠 This week on Atlas All Access, Braden takes the reigns as we check in on the Dallas Office by sitting down with VP of Travel Recruitment & Retention and also the head of the Dallas Office, Kurt Chase.

With this conversation, we get to know why Dallas, the differences and similarities between our office in Omaha and the Dallas office, and what is next for the Dallas office going forward. Toss in Kurt's thoughts about our decision on TravCon 2021 and whether a hot dog is a taco or a sandwich.

I mean, it's a sandwich. Right? It can't be a taco. I mean is a sub sandwich a taco then? The world may never know.

🎰 Just when you thought Rich would never allow Braden back into the recording studio, they both are back from their trip to Las Vegas to talk about TravCon 2021.

With TravCon 2021 done and gone, RIch and Braden take a look at what we can expect from Atlas MedStaff going forward with TravCon and Rich has an exciting announcement that pertains to just that.
