About NLC Staffing

People behind every placement.

NLC Staffing is a British Columbia–based nursing staffing agency with a simple commitment: care for the nurses who care for everyone else, and deliver the quality that BC's healthcare facilities deserve.

Our mission

Why we exist.

BC's healthcare system runs on the dedication of nurses, care aides, and allied health professionals. NLC Staffing was built to serve those people — and in doing so, ensure that patients across British Columbia always have a qualified, supported professional in their corner.

We believe that when a nurse feels respected, supported, and fairly compensated, they show up better. And when facilities trust their staffing partner to send only the right people, the whole system works better. That's the connection we exist to make.

What makes NLC different

  • Locally owned and BC-focused — we know this province and its healthcare landscape.
  • Nurses are partners, not just workers on a roster.
  • Every placement is credentialed, vetted, and matched — not just available.
  • Honest communication with both our nurses and our facility clients.
  • Responsive support, around the clock, when shifts need to be filled fast.

For our nurses

We take care of the people who take care of everyone.

Nursing is one of the most demanding professions there is — physically, emotionally, and mentally. We don't take that lightly. Every decision we make is grounded in genuine respect for the work you do.

Your schedule, your life

No minimums, no pressure. Browse open contracts on your own time and accept only what works for you. Your availability is yours to control.

Transparent, fair pay

You know exactly what you'll earn before you commit to any placement. No surprises, no hidden deductions. Biweekly direct deposit, on time, every time.

A real person in your corner

When you need support — before a placement, during a shift, or after — you reach a real person who knows your file and genuinely wants to help.

We check in — not just follow up

After every placement we ask how it went — not to fill more shifts, but because your experience matters. Your feedback shapes who we work with.

Burnout is real — we respect that

We understand that nursing is physically and emotionally demanding. We never push you to take more than you can handle, and we advocate for safe conditions at every facility we partner with.

Support for travel nurses

Relocating to BC or working in a new region? We help you navigate the transition — from licensing to finding placements close to where you're settling.

“Our nurses are not a commodity. They are the reason BC's healthcare system functions. We are here to support them — not the other way around.”

For healthcare facilities

Quality staffing, every single time.

We know that a single unreliable placement can disrupt an entire unit. That's why we hold every nurse on our roster to an exacting standard — and why our facility partners trust us with their most critical shifts.

Our commitment to quality care across British Columbia is not just a promise — it is built into how we recruit, credential, match, and follow up on every placement we make.

Work with us
01

Rigorous credentialing

Every nurse on our roster is fully verified — BCCNM registration, references, criminal record checks, and more — before they ever set foot in your facility.

02

The right fit, not just a warm body

We match professionals to placements based on clinical background, experience, and culture — not whoever is available.

03

Responsive when it matters

Healthcare doesn't wait for business hours. Our team is reachable when urgent shifts need to be filled.

04

Built on long-term relationships

We are not a transactional agency. We invest in understanding your facility so every placement is better than the last.

Our values

What we stand for.

Nurses first

The people who do the work deserve an agency that truly has their back — on pay, on scheduling, on working conditions, and on respect.

Standards, not shortcuts

Every nurse we place is skilled, verified, and matched with intention. We take the time to get it right because every placement carries our name — and our nurses' reputation — with it.

Integrity

We say what we mean and do what we say — to our nurses, our clients, and the patients who ultimately depend on both.

Community

BC is home. We are invested in the health of this province and the people who keep it running.
