In a market with fierce competition for healthcare talent, a hospital in Barcelona faced the challenge of strengthening its nursing workforce with permanent positions.

Vacancies left open for weeks
Vacancies stayed open for weeks with no real cover. We needed a solution that would connect us with nursing talent directly and effectively.
In an environment of staff shortages, clinical pressure and high turnover, it was essential to find people who not only had the technical skills but who also shared the centre’s values and were interested in a long-term project.
- Nurses for more than just one-off cover.
- Professionals who would fit the centre’s culture and wanted stability.
- Cutting time to hire without compromising the quality of the process.
Traditional job boards were not delivering. Applications were scarce, candidates did not always fit and screening was eating up valuable HR team resources.
Livo Ofertas as the main hiring channel
The hospital decided to post its permanent vacancies on Livo Ofertas, Livo’s permanent hiring module, which connects directly with a network of more than 55,000 healthcare professionals who are registered, accredited and active on the platform.
Direct access to a qualified healthcare network
The vacancies went straight to nurses who already know and trust Livo.
Quality screening up front
The Livo team runs interviews and verifications before the hospital invests any time in the process.
No cost to the hospital
Livo Ofertas charges no posting fee and no hiring fee.
An immediate response
Support from the Livo team ran through the whole process.
8 hires in two months
It is not just about filling a post, it is about bringing in people who share our values and who want to grow with us, and that makes the organisation grow too.

On top of that, many of the professionals hired had already worked one-off shifts at the hospital through Livo, which made settling in easier and shortened the time it took them to find their feet.
That initial flexibility let them get to know the centre, confirm that the project appealed to them and, in the end, choose a permanent position.
Recognising the central role of nursing
For directors of nursing and HR leads, the key is not only having innovative tools, but recognising the central role of nursing in the healthcare system and valuing, supporting and offering stability to staff.
The quality of the professionals
“You do a good job of screening and interviewing. Every professional who has come to us has been good.”
Flexibility for professionals
Livo offers a way of working that appeals to anyone looking for autonomy and control over their career.
“Some professionals have left their permanent jobs and only work shifts with Livo because they decide when and how much they work.”
An immediate response and constant support
“You are always available and you answer straight away. For us, that is priceless.”
