Описание: Home Away From Home: Navigating the Travel Healthcare Housing Maze

Finding the perfect place to hang your stethoscope after a long shift shouldn't be harder than the shift itself. In the latest episode of On the Clock // Off the Record, Rich Smith sits down with Michael Schlottman, Director of Strategic Partnerships at Extended Stay America, to pull back the curtain on one of the most vital—and sometimes misunderstood—parts of the traveler lifestyle: lodging.

Whether you’re a seasoned traveler or a staffing leader looking to streamline the experience for your team, this episode is packed with insights on how to balance comfort, cost, and the "night shift" reality.

It’s Not Just a Room, It’s a Strategy

One of the biggest myths in the industry? “All housing is the same.” Michael was quick to debunk this, noting that housing options vary wildly in terms of safety, consistency, and compliance.

For the staffing leaders tuning in, the message was clear: Extended Stay America isn't just for individual bookings. They’ve built a massive footprint across the U.S. designed specifically to handle the high-speed, high-volume needs of the staffing world. Whether it’s an agency booking or a traveler using their stipend to make their own choice, the goal is to make the process as frictionless as possible.

We all know that in travel healthcare, the only constant is change. Contracts get extended, start dates get pushed, and occasionally, cancellations happen.

Extended Stay has built its model around this flexibility, making it easy to accommodate the unpredictable nature of healthcare assignments.
