A Day in the Life of a Care Coordinator | Trusted Health

From the beginning, Trusted has sought to transform the typical travel nursing experience, empowering nurses to enjoy increased independence and control over their careers. In pursuit of this mission, Trusted does not utilize a typical recruiter model. Instead, we offer a Care Team, made up of several teams of specialists, with each specialist dedicated to a different stage of the travel journey. On your Care Team, you’ll work with:

• A Nurse Advocate, a RN who will help support you throughout your entire experience with Trusted. 
• A Compliance Coordinator, who will help you complete Onboarding tasks, 
• And Care Coordinators, a unique team of experts who assist nurses with a variety of questions at every stage of their travel experience.

👉 Read more: Understanding the Trusted Health Care Team

Read on to hear from Caitie, a current Care Coordinator at Trusted, about her role in helping nurses and why she believes in this model.

What sets the Trusted Care Team apart

The Trusted Care Team model is unique in the industry and may take some getting used to if you are coming from a traditional recruiter model. As a part of the Care Team, there are a few things that set our model apart in my mind.

First, the Care Team model offers independence. No more headhunters, no endless calls from recruiters, and no high-pressure sales tactics pushing you into a contract that’s wrong for you. Because no one at Trusted works on commission, our only incentive is to make you happy. We do that by letting you control the dialogue, as you choose which roles you want to pursue and you determine the level of involvement you’d like us to have in your job search.

No more headhunters, no endless calls from recruiters, and no high-pressure sales tactics pushing you into a contract that’s wrong for you.

Second, because we are committed to being clinician-first, we prioritize hiring clinicians at Trusted HQ. Real RNs with firsthand knowledge of what it’s like to be at the bedside work across every department at Trusted, from the Care Team, to Marketing, to Engineering and beyond. We encourage you to get to know the nurses on our team !

So, what does a Care Coordinator really do

You can think of a Care Coordinator as being like a triage nurse in an Emergency Department. Every new message or phone call that comes to Trusted is first reviewed by a Care Coordinator. The Care Coordinator will then assess the situation and may escalate the concern to a more specialized member of the Care Team. Like a triage nurse, Care Coordinators have a keen sense of judgment, are able to communicate effectively, and multi-task well in order to quickly and confidently direct nurses to the best resource for each situation.

A typical day for a Care Coordinator

Today, I want to share a behind-the-scenes peek at what goes on in a typical day in the life of a Care Coordinator by sharing a day in my life!

Trusted’s internal workforce is fully remote, so my morning commute is easy- just a few quick steps from the coffee pot into my home office! While many other teams at Trusted work a typical Monday through Friday schedule, the Care Coordinator team monitors inbound messages 7 days a week. As part of our weekend coverage team, my work week begins each Tuesday morning and ends on Saturday evenings. 

As you might expect, the majority of a Care Coordinator’s time is spent in what our team refers to as “Inboxes.” This is where our team can view all inbound messages from nurses in one easy place. Whether you send us a message via Inbox in the Trusted Mobile App or website, shoot an email to [email protected], or give us a ring on the phone, all of these messages first go into a queue for the Care Coordinator team to review. 

Because Care Coordinators work with nurses at every stage of the travel journey, the Care Coordinator team possesses a wide breadth of knowledge about many topics. Care Coordinators are well-informed about the travel nursing industry at large and are experts about Trusted specifically. On a typical day, I’ll answer questions about general topics, such as how to obtain a license in a new state or help with understanding a pay package. I’ll also dig into more complex questions about processes and policies, such as benefits enrollment and troubleshooting, guidance while completing your Trusted profile, or an update for when to expect your Trusted Welcome Box to arrive. If you have any questions about working with Trusted, you can trust that a Care Coordinator will know the answer!

Care Coordinator teammates may also specialize in certain topics. For example, our Payroll Care Coordinator team has the most experience with pay and stipend related questions. Similarly, Timekeeping Care Coordinators are the most proficient in understanding facility timekeeping practices. Other teammates may specialize in extensions, Trusted’s referral program, or agency switches. 

In addition to my regular duties as a Care Coordinator, I am a part of the Care Coordinator Knowledge Team. Myself and two other teammates maintain Trusted’s internal and external written resources. The majority of my work on the Knowledge Team consists of updating and writing new articles for the Trusted Help Center. Writing, editing, and improving Help Center articles is a passion of mine. It’s my goal to make our Help Center a robust and essential resource for our nurses!

In my work as a Care Coordinator, my best days are when I can make a true difference in someone’s story with Trusted. Some days, that looks like a long phone call with a nurse as they share about a hard day on the Covid unit. Other days, it means working closely with other teams to help a nurse secure a contract for a verbal offer. But every day, and in every conversation, supporting our nurses starts with one simple message: “Caitie here with your Care Team- how can I help you today?” 

‍ Sign up , or log in to Trusted today and get in touch with folks like Caitie who can help you build the life you want.

Prior to beginning her role as a Care Coordinator at Trusted Health, Caitie was a small business owner and entrepreneur. A PNW native, Caitie grew up in Idaho and now lives in SW Washington in the greater Portland metro area. Things that make Caitie happy include baking, a good book, and the Bachelor.

April Fools' Day pranks: Apps to translate baby stoner sayings, a ghostbuster at Tinder

Every april 1, brands and companies want to get some laughs – and attention – with goofy new 'product' launches. here are some ideas from companies such as sweetgreen, welch's and omaha steaks..

If you don't like Mondays, this one may especially be grating. It's April Fool's Day , when you should trust no one and question everything.

The roots of April Fools' Day may date back before to before the 15th century. But the modern-day April Fools' Day has become a day to prank a friend, family member, co-worker − or your customers.

Even though some companies have had April Fools' pranks backfire , marketers continue to issue spoof products in attempts to get some laughs and attention.

Already ahead of April Fools' Day, 7-Eleven has hinted at a possible prank product: In addition to new Lemon Lime, Green Apple and Sweet Orange flavored 7-Select sparkling waters, out now with partner Miracle Seltzer, there's a fourth flavor coming April 1: Big Bite Hot Dog.

The hot dog-flavored water "combines the mouthwatering experience of 7-Eleven’s iconic Big Bite Hot Dog into one refreshing beverage – ketchup and mustard included," the convenience chain says in a press release . "Say goodbye to the days of alternating bites of a hot dog with sips of a beverage, now those on the go can swap the bun for bubbles."

Krispy Kreme: A special doughnut deal for April Fools' Day

Will Big Bite Hot Dog sparkling water be sold? Its availability will be announced April 1. However, some reporters were sent a can of the drink. USA TODAY can confirm that it definitely smells like hot dog water and has a smoky aftertaste.

If you are interested in trying it, both 7-Eleven and Miracle Seltzer have hinted at having some to give away on their Instagram pages. (If you get a can, share with a friend as it's 16 ounces.)

Here's a roundup of many of the brand-related April Fools’ gag announcements. You've been warned.

Sour cream & onion flavored soda

Despite the proliferation of crazy-flavored products including Peeps-flavored Pepsi , Frank's RedHot sauce-flavored Vlasic pickles and Doritos Nacho Cheese-flavored liquor , healthy soda brand OLIPOP and Pringles are not really teaming up to bring to market a Sour Cream & Onion soda.

The product would have been "a match made in heaven … to bring the delicious, tangy flavor of Pringles’ Sour Cream & Onion flavor to life in liquid form with prebiotic benefits," the companies said.

Stoner lingo translation app

Another dream team prank product: Rosetta Stoned, a mobile app from Rosetta Stone and medical marijuana company Fluent , that "bridges the conversational gap between novice users and seasoned stoners in any social setting."

Da da decoder

Infant equipment site BabyQuip has its own language-bridging lark: the “Baby Translator” app, to decode your baby's secret language.

"Say 'goodbye' to restless nights as you decode your baby's coos and cries instantly, providing you with the understanding you need as a parent, all in one convenient app," it promises.

An AI-powered plush doll

Custom stuffed animal maker Budsies already makes selfie plush dolls with a built-in voice recorder. Its April Fools' spoof: Artificial intelligence-enabled dolls that "come programmed to learn everything about you and to become your new best friend."

A 50-pound Bearabuddy

Sorry to the 3,500 or so who have already signed up to buy Bearaby's Jumbo Benji plush toy, which is four times the size of its regular weighted plush toys and twice as heavy as its heaviest weighted blanket . This isn't actually going to be sold. But it is real and will be making its home in the lobby at The Child Mind Institute in Harlem to welcome children and their families. More weighted plushies are due the day after April Fools' Day, the company says.

A sleeping bag to go bananas over

The Dole Banana Peel Sleeping Bag, conveniently promoted as being available on April Fools' Day only, is made from actual banana fiber and "allows parents to escape into their own cocoon of sensory deprivation."

A full-body cleaning suit

Outrageous clothing company Tipsy Elves has a special product for April Fools' Day: The Mopsie. You don't need paper towels anymore, you can use your body to clean up those messes, with this "innovative, wearable microfiber towel jumpsuit" for "effortlessly soaking up spills and messes with ease." There's also a Baby Mopsie for "hard to reach places."

Korean BBQ deodorant

Kevin's Natural Foods , which has paleo- and keto-certified ready-to-cook and easy-prep entrées, is touting a new line of personal care products inspired by its food dishes including Korean BBQ Deodorant, Cilantro Lime Toothpaste, Lemongrass Basil Shampoo and Tikka Masala Sunscreen.

"These new face, body and hair care essentials will help fans prioritize self-care inside and out," the company says. 

Omaha Steaks' meaty sprays

Omaha Steaks has its own personal care prank product: Meaty Spritz sprays with flavors such as Omaha Fog, Hog Haze, and Cock-a-Doodle-Dew.

"The world’s first protein-infused, flavor-packed, portable pump spray … (to) enjoy all the mouthwatering flavors of your Omaha Steaks gourmet favorites no matter how far away from the kitchen you are!" the company says.

Sriracha toothpaste

Asian sauce maker Lee Kum Kee , which makes Sriracha Chili Sauce and Sriracha Mayo Dressing, is introducing – not – its Siracha Mayo Toothpaste. It's "fiery and creamy goodness … is sure to spice up your morning dental routine."

Post-salad dental kit

Need some less powerful toothpaste? Sweetgreen offered these fanciful personal hygiene products as part of its Sweetgreen After Salad Kit, which is "designed with your pearly whites in mind … offering everything you need to freshen up post-meal."

Choose from Miso Ginger Toothpaste, Spicy Cashew Mints, Lime Cilantro Dental Floss, and Sweetgreen Toothbrush and Floss Picks.

Fruit juice lip gloss

More personal care prank products: Welch’s Juicyfuls Juicy Fruit Lip Gloss – now available in five flavors: grape, orange, peach, strawberry and raspberry – made with real juice from Juicefuls fruit snacks so "you get that irresistible sweet flavor you love, all in a lip gloss that's as fun as it is nourishing."

Protein-powered seasonings

Quest Nutrition , maker of protein powder, snacks and other products, has a prank product line of seasonings including All Purpose, Lemon Pepper, and Garlic Herb, each of which deliver "21g of protein, 2g of net carbs and less than 1g of sugar."

If you want to try Quest's real products, you can use code NOJOKE for free shipping on online orders over $49 April 1-3.

Superpowered Superfeet?

These would certainly come in hand on a run, but – sorry – it's a jogging joke. Superfeet SuperBoost Power E-Soles gives you 8 hours of continuous battery-powered boost, for almost Iron Man-like propulsion. "All the comfort and support of Superfeet , now with electrifying performance," the company says in a video about the prank product. "It's like having a powerful electric motor in your shoes."

Scotch tape-branded Scotch?

This shenanigan seems like a blend that could stick: Scotch Whisky by Scotch Brand. The whisky "features a nose of cherry wood and a delightfully smooth finish that hits like a well-wrapped gift."

Who you gonna call when ghosted? This new title at Tinder

Dating app Tinder announced a new April Fools' Day hiring quest for a Vice President of Ghost Hunting to help combat "one of dating culture’s most prevalent vices – ghosting," a practice inflicted on 78% of singles already in 2024 (an untrue fact from Tinder).

Patrón's bringing back a beloved liqueur. No kidding.

Patrón patrons get some good news today. The premium tequila maker chose April Fools' Day to announce the return of its Patrón XO Cafe tequila-based coffee liqueur, which was discontinued in 2021. Since production ceased, devotees took to social media and signed a petition asking parent company Bacardi to bring it back.

Made with Patrón Silver tequila and Arabica bean coffee – the dry liqueur can be sipped straight, in cocktails and as dessert topping – Patrón XO Cafe will begin arriving in stores again later this month.

Say it with dead flowers

Don't forget to put roses on your April Fools' Day list. UrbanStems has this "special" delivery, The Dead Inside Collection, "an assortment of dead flower bouquets, dead plants, half empty vases, and more for the pessimist in your life." But, for real, check UrbanStems' social media accounts including Instagram for how to get 20% off an order of real flowers.

Urban Outfitters launches 'Name Three Shirts' movement

Urban Outfitters said it is launching a global movement to "stand in solidarity against band-tee-shaming" by launching a new collection called "Name Three Shirts."

The line, which features revamped logos from bands such as The Grateful Dead, Joy Division and Led Zeppelin, is a "playful jab at the attitudes of older generations, and fights back against the misogynistic undertones of the infamous ‘name three songs’ line of questioning," Urban Outfitters said in the news release.

The collection of shirts is available online and in select Urban Outfitters stores starting April 1. You can shop the collection online here .

Can I Exfoliate My Tattoos? And Other Questions About Tattoo Care.

This story first appeared on Wednesday, March 27, in  The Strategist Beauty Brief , a weekly newsletter in which our beauty writers share their must-tries, can-skips, and can’t-live-withouts. But we liked it so much we wanted to share it with all of our readers. If you want more first impressions of buzzy launches, quick takes on what’s trending on TikTok and Instagram, and deep dives into the week’s best beauty launches, sign up  here .  The Strategist Beauty Brief  is delivered every Wednesday.

At the end of every installment of  The Strategist Beauty Brief , we invite you, our readers, to write in with products you want us to test or trends that you want us to fact-check. And a couple of weeks ago,   a reader submitted a question asking for “a deep dive into what beauty-care products help, hurt, or are just plain okay for tattooed body skin” that was very comprehensive and left us, quite frankly, a little stumped — so our writer  Dominique Pariso  took a swing at answering it here. If you’ve got your own question for the team, send us an email at  [email protected]  and we may answer it in a future installment.

While I don’t have any tattoos myself, I have written about caring for  tattooed   skin  before, so I’ve learned quite a bit about the topic. However, to make sure my info is as up-to-date as possible, I also chatted with two board-certified dermatologists:  Dr. Hadley King  and  Dr. Azadeh Shirazi . The good news is the professional advice for tattoo care has basically stayed the same over the past five years, and what’s good for your skin — specifically hydrating and protecting yourself from sun damage — is good for your tattoos. But in the interest of service journalism, I’ve broken down our reader’s original email question by question, so you know exactly what you need to keep your tattoo looking as vibrant as possible for as long as it’s on your body. (So, forever.)

Most tattoo artists recommend a healing protocol: Wash with a gentle soap like CeraVe, follow up with a few days of Aquaphor, then another safe lotion like CeraVe or Lubriderm. But what about healed tattoos?

After the initial healing phase is complete, which generally takes a few weeks, you can switch from the heavier occlusive ointments, like Aquaphor, to lighter lotions and creams. You want something that will still keep the skin hydrated and strengthens the skin barrier to keep your skin — and your tattoos — looking their best, says Shirazi, so look for formulas that are rich in replenishing ingredients like ceramides, fatty acids, and niacinamide.

For a body wash, consider  Necessaire’s , which is hydrating and safe for sensitive skin. And once you’re out of the shower, try  Naturium’s body lotion . It’s a favorite among our staff because it’s chock-full of omega fatty acids and shea butter, which deeply moisturizes the skin. It’s also fragrance-free and affordable. But really, any body wash or moisturizer that keeps the skin nourished will work fine for keeping healed tattoos at their finest.

So many body-care products have retinol or AHAs. Is it safe to use those active ingredients, either as a body wash or as a moisturizer?

It mostly comes down to timing. “For the first three months, it’s best to avoid harsh physical scrubs, AHAs, exfoliants, or retinols, as studies have shown tattoo ink to initially remain in the outermost skin layers,” explains Shirazi. Since these ingredients function by exfoliating or renewing the upper layers of the skin, they could interfere with the long-term healing of your tattoo. However, after complete healing, which generally happens around the three-month mark, the majority of the ink is located deeper in the skin, and such products are then safe to use, says Shirazi. And it turns out that incorporating an exfoliant or retinol regularly into your routine can actually make your tattoo look brighter, since you’re sloughing off a layer of dead skin cells.

To prevent irritation and dryness, you should only add in an active product once or twice a week, but they can be incorporated in any stage of your routine. For a body wash, I recommend Naturium’s  Smoother Body Wash . It has a blend of glycolic and lactic acid to gently exfoliate and red algae to hydrate. If you prefer more of a physical scrub, I’ve used Nécessaire’s  Body Exfoliator  for years. And for a body lotion,  AmLactin Daily Moisturizing Lotion  is super-affordable with 12 percent lactic acid. All of these will buff away dead skin cells to keep your skin feeling smooth and your ink looking nice and crisp

What about sunscreen recommendations for tattooed skin?

On to the most important step: sunscreen, sunscreen, sunscreen. Wear it every day and apply it regularly, since UV exposure will cause the pigments in your tattoos to fade. Plus, using a product with active ingredients like AHAs or retinol will cause your skin to be more sensitive to the sun, so it’s even more important.

And just as with non-tattooed skin, “The right sunscreen is the sunscreen you will wear regularly,” says King. Both dermatologists we spoke with recommended mineral-based sunscreens, because those formulas sit on top of the skin to physically block the sun’s rays. You can dive deep into our sunscreen recommendations  here  and  here ; King recommends  Blue Lizard’s mineral sunscreen , and Shiraz’s top pick is this SPF 50 from  La-Roche Posay .

What about the products designed for tattooed skin, like Mad Rabbit and Dr. Woo. Worth it or skip it?

There isn’t any secret sauce that makes product lines specifically targeted for tattooed skin better than any other skin-care line. A lot of these brands promise to make your tattoos last longer or heal faster, but, at the end of the day, it’s mostly just marketing. Taking care of your skin with a routine you can stick with will get you those same results, so feel free to experiment with what works best for you.
