More about Pinnacle Staffing
If you take a contract through them, the day-to-day texture nurses describe is less about a single hospital badge and more about how your recruiter stays in touch and how the assignment itself treats you. Travel clinicians talk about named recruiters who check in often, answer when something comes up, and help sort the contract details. Others say pay and overall treatment on assignment are why they keep the agency high on their list. One thread notes leadership making the trip from New York to visit nurses and facilities in North Carolina, which staff read as a sign the agency shows up. Utica itself runs a lower cost of living than the national average and short local commutes if you base here between assignments. What you will not find in the open sources is a posted pay scale, so any rate conversation starts with the recruiter on the specific job.
