Who they are

Five Star Nursing is a nursing staffing agency based in the New York metropolitan area, with headquarters in Brooklyn, NY.

More about Five Star Nursing

Rather than operating as a single healthcare facility, the organization places nursing professionals—including Registered Nurses (RNs) and Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs)—in a variety of healthcare settings including hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, private physician practices, and residential/home healthcare environments. They offer full-time, part-time, and per-diem staffing positions, emphasizing convenience and flexibility for their workforce. The agency markets itself as one of the biggest nursing job providers in the region, with a track record of placing both new and experienced nursing professionals. They staff client facilities 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. For nurses, working at Five Star Nursing means functioning as an agency-employed professional assigned to various client locations rather than being permanently embedded in a single facility's culture. This model offers scheduling autonomy and variety of practice settings, but may come with challenges related to workplace instability, adapting to different facility protocols, and the stress associated with contingent staffing work.

Their stated mission is 'to provide continuous quality service, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.' Five Star Nursing promotes the comfort and quality of life for patients in home or nursing facility environments, treating each patient as an individual with dignity, privacy, and attention to appropriate interventions based on individual needs. They also emphasize providing patient families with support, services, and consideration, while supplying healthcare facilities with top-notch, licensed and credentialed professionals.
