How MedSkift works

Three steps on each side. No bidding and no agency in the middle.

  1. Post a shift

    Choose the profession, date, hours, site and rate. Post a single shift or a weekly rota.
  2. Choose a verified applicant

    Compare experience and reviews. Everyone who can apply has already passed our checks.
  3. Confirm the booking

    Accept the person you want. US$3 comes off your credit and contact details are shared both ways.
  1. Create a free profile

    Add your profession, council registration number and experience. It takes a few minutes.
  2. Get verified once

    Confirm your ID with a selfie through Didit and upload your practising certificate. Our team checks it.
  3. Apply and get booked

    Apply for shifts that suit you. When you are picked you get the details, and the employer pays you directly.

Verification you can rely on

Nobody applies for a shift, and no employer posts one, until their checks are done.

  • Identity

    An ID document and a live selfie, checked through our partner Didit.

  • Registration and practising certificate

    Council registration numbers and current certificates, checked by our team against the council register.

  • Business registration and facility licence

    Employers show their registration and operating licence. Families verify their identity.

Reviewed by our team. Expiry dates tracked. Reminders go out before a certificate expires, and an expired licence pauses applications.

Care at home for someone in your family

Families can book verified caregivers and nurses for home care, for a night, a week or longer. Sign up as an individual and verify your identity. Your address stays hidden from applicants until you book.
