### About

Established in 2001, Medical Solutions is a leading provider of healthcare workforce solutions. They work with 16,000+ traveling medical professionals, finding job placements nationwide and assisting with housing and travel arrangements.

### The problem

#### Specialized Lodging Needs

Travel nurses working with Medical Solutions are given two options when they receive a job placement: take a stipend and secure their own housing or have the Medical Solutions team help them. When nurses request assistance, they trust the team to provide them with comfortable lodging that’s conveniently located, offers essential amenities, and can accommodate any furry family that might be joining them.

The Medical Solutions team often sources properties with amenities like kitchenettes, interior corridors, and pet-friendly spaces. The goal? A ‘home away from home’ because when working long hours, it’s paramount that medical professionals are provided accommodations that allow them to unwind. **“After working a 12-hour shift, our nurses don’t want to drive an hour back to where they’re staying,”** says Beth G., Housing and Travel Supervisor at Medical Solutions.

#### Cumbersome Processes

Before Engine, the team had few tools at their disposal to assist in finding housing that met these standards—especially with job sites spanning all 50 states and Guam. “The process was all just picking up the phone and calling around to hotels,” Beth remembers. **“We could research on the internet about what hotels are in the area, but then we’d have to call them all individually to find out about their availability and negotiate rates.”**

## The solution

**Engine’s robust filtering tools, hotel savings, and 24/7 Member Support team save Medical Solutions a considerable amount of time and money.**

“We can see the amenities, the rates, and view multiple hotels on one page. It’s been a huge time saver.” — Beth G. Hosting and Travel Supervisor

### With Engine

#### Quick & easy property search

With Engine, Beth’s team is now able to quickly and easily find great properties for their traveling nurses by filtering search results using their requirements and locating the right extended-stay hotel or aparthotel without having to pick up the phone.

#### Saving 30 mins per traveler

In fact, Beth estimates that using Engine saves her team 30 minutes per traveler—a notable number when you consider that each member of her team oversees 70-100 travelers at any given time for placements of up to 13 weeks. They’re spending less time managing those reservations, too.

## Frequently asked questions

**01 How does Engine work?**

Hotels want to reach business travelers while companies with traveling workforces want the best rates they can get. Our platform brings everyone together to radically simplify trip management and give everyone exactly what they want. By booking with Engine, you and your company will save substantially in both time and money.

**02 How is Engine free to use?**

By providing great value to our hotel partners, we get great rates. That means we can take a small cut of each booking — enough to cover 24/7 Member Support and continually re-invest in new technology — and still offer deals to our members that are up to 60% less than the online public travel sites. That’s why we can keep Engine free to join and use.
