The Crisis

Rural Ontario is Running Out of Healthcare Workers.

Agency costs in Northwestern Ontario have surged 480% since 2019. Rural hospitals are paying emergency rates for last-minute shifts while qualified workers sit idle — because there's no efficient way to connect them.

The Platform

Simple, Fast, Compliant.

Facilities post urgent or scheduled shifts. Workers browse and accept shifts that fit their schedule. Our matching engine surfaces the right candidates instantly.
03
Work & Get Paid

Why MediRec

Trusted by Ontario's Care Community.

"We used to spend 3 hours calling agencies every time we had a night shift gap. MediRec fills it in under an hour. For a small rural hospital, that's not a convenience — it's essential."
DM
Director of Nursing
Rural Community Hospital, Muskoka
"I work three different hospitals through MediRec. I pick my shifts around my family and the platform keeps all my certificates in one place. I never have to email documents anymore."

Sarah K., RN

"The compliance dashboard alone saved us from two regulatory audits. Every worker's credentials are tracked automatically. Our DOC loves it — she can pull a report in seconds."
