How it works with jackson healthPros

We connect qualified professionals—like therapists, special education staff, and school nurses—with schools across the country that need support. In many cases, we have an exclusive relationship with a school district, giving you the chance to interview faster, and get hired quicker, with less competition for highly competitive roles. 

 

your career, your way

local and travel contracts

When schools face staffing shortages in critical roles, they partner with staffing agencies like Jackson HealthPros to fill those gaps through short-term contracts. Contract work means you're hired for a specific role for a set period as a full-time employee of Jackson HealthPros. 

There are two main types of contract roles through our agency – travel and local contracts. Both options allow you to grow your career, make a meaningful impact, and choose assignments that fit – or grow - your lifestyle.
