Locum tenens seem to be the only thing we ever talk about, and there’s a reason for that. They’re an indispensable group of folks who sacrifice so much to bring patients the care they need – that and our sole purpose is to educate people about locums. So when National Locum Tenens Week rolls around for the 6th year in a row, you know we’re going to give some love to the locums who give so much.
What is National Locum Tenens Week anyway?
It was started back in 2016 as a way to honor physicians, NPs, and PAs who work locum tenens, because they certainly deserve some honoring. It’s the perfect time for the healthcare industry to thank our locums, and a great time for our locums to pat themselves on the back. They’ve more than earned it.

It’s not a proper celebration without a free T-shirt.
Nothing celebrates our hard-working providers quite like a free T-shirt for everyone. And yes, it will probably be ill fitting and live in the back of your closet until you need a shirt for yardwork, but we hope it will always serve as a reminder of how grateful we are for locum tenens.
Claim your free T-shirt by August 12, before they get claimed up by everyone else. Enter code LOCUM22 at checkout.
