Nursa, a Salt Lake City-based platform that connects healthcare facilities with nursing professionals for per diem shifts, has been named to the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of America's fastest-growing private companies, securing the No. 1504 spot. The list, published by Inc. magazine, ranks companies based on revenue growth from 2021 to 2024, and this year's recognition underscores Nursa's resilience and expansion amid economic challenges such as inflation and a fluctuating labor market.
The Inc. 5000 list is a benchmark for the most successful independent businesses in the U.S. economy. Nursa's inclusion is particularly noteworthy given the pressures facing the healthcare staffing industry, including rising costs and a persistent nursing shortage. Curtis Anderson, CEO and founder of Nursa, attributed the company's growth to a clear purpose and strong partnerships within the healthcare community. "Our mission is to place a nurse at the bedside of every patient in need," Anderson said. The company's technology platform, which is accredited by The Joint Commission, is used by over 3,400 facilities and 400,000 nurses nationwide.
Mike Hofman, editor-in-chief of Inc., noted that making the list this year demonstrates a company's ability to navigate rising costs and global changes. For HR vendors and staffing industry players, Nursa's rapid ascent signals a shift toward technology-driven, flexible staffing solutions. Traditional staffing methods often face financial and operational challenges, and Nursa's per diem model addresses these by providing on-demand access to qualified nurses. This model has proven effective in a post-pandemic healthcare landscape where facilities seek agility.
The implications for the human resources and talent management sector are significant. Nursa's growth reflects a broader trend of platforms that prioritize flexibility and efficiency, which could reshape how healthcare organizations approach staffing. For vendors selling into HR, this underscores the importance of investing in technology that meets the needs of a dynamic workforce. Additionally, Nursa's accreditation and rapid adoption highlight the demand for reliable, vetted solutions in healthcare staffing.
Founded in 2019, Nursa has quickly become a trusted name in healthcare staffing. Its inclusion in the Inc. 5000 list is a testament to its impact and potential for future growth. For more details on the Inc. 5000 list and Nursa's profile, visit https://www.inc.com/inc5000.
