CRNA Recruiters
Certified registered nurse anesthetists are among the hardest permanent hires in a hospital, and the candidates who are open to moving are rarely the ones applying online. MedStaff Nationwide recruits CRNAs directly, through referrals and long-standing relationships across the anesthesia community.
We stand behind every placement — any candidate who doesn't complete onboarding is replaced at no cost.

What makes crna hiring hard
Practice model is the deciding factor
Independent, care-team, and medically directed models attract different CRNAs. Getting that right early avoids a declined offer after three interviews.
Locum rates set expectations
CRNAs know what locum work pays. We help you build a permanent package, with schedule and call, that competes on total value.
Credentialing and privileges take time
Hospital privileging can stretch a start date. We manage the file with the candidate so nothing waits on a missing document.
How we vet every crna
- NBCRNA certification and recertification status verified
- APRN and RN licenses in your state confirmed
- Case mix experience (cardiac, OB, pediatric, regional) documented
- Practice-model preference matched to your department
- Call and shift expectations confirmed in writing
- References from anesthesiologists or chief CRNAs

FAQ
CRNA recruiting, answered
- How much does it cost to hire CRNAs through MedStaff Nationwide?
- We work on contingency: there is no retainer and no fee until your CRNA starts. The placement fee is a percentage of first-year base compensation, agreed in writing before the search begins, and every placement carries a replacement guarantee.
- How long does a CRNA search take?
- Our average time-to-fill across permanent clinical searches is 27 days from signed agreement to accepted offer. CRNAs searches in competitive markets can run longer; your recruiter sets a realistic timeline during intake and reports against it weekly.
- Do you recruit CRNAs for independent-practice settings?
- Yes. We recruit for independent, care-team, and medically directed practices and screen each candidate for the model they want before presenting them.
- What happens if the clinician leaves?
- Every placement is covered by our replacement guarantee. If a placed clinician does not complete onboarding, we re-run the search at no additional cost. Our 12-month retention rate across placements is 96%.
