Patients & families
Need help finding the right nurse?
Skip the guesswork. Tell us the care setting, license type and city — we'll match you with vetted nursing professionals or a licensed nurse registry serving your area.
Built for how healthcare actually hires and gets hired
Explain your situation in plain language
No medical jargon required. Describe the care setting, timeline and any conditions — we translate.
Match by license type
RN, LPN, Nurse Practitioner, CNA or ‘not sure yet’ — we route your request to the right professionals.
Local, licensed registries
For home care, we connect you with AHCA-licensed nurse registries and home health agencies in your area.
Verify credentials yourself
Every profile we send links to public license lookup, so you can double-check before hiring.
No obligation
Requesting help is free and there's no pressure to hire. Take your time to review credentials.
Timeline flexible
Whether you need care today, next week, or you're just planning ahead, tell us the timeframe.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a cost to request help?
No. Requesting a match through HealthcareApex is free for patients and families. Nurses and registries pay us to be listed.
How fast will I hear back?
Most requests receive a first response within one business day. For urgent care requests, mark ‘ASAP’ on the timeline field.
Do you provide care yourselves?
No. HealthcareApex is a directory and matching service. Care is provided by the independent nurses, registries and agencies we refer you to.
What if I only need part-time or overnight care?
Include that in the ‘Type of care needed’ field. We match you with registries that support part-time, overnight, live-in and 24-hour arrangements.
