SnapCare Named Finalist for Three 2026 TIARA Staffing & Talent Solutions Awards
ATLANTA, GA (Tuesday, May 5, 2026) – SnapCare, an award-winning workforce optimization platform, today announced it has been named a finalist in three categories for the 2026 TIARA Staffing & Talent Solutions Awards (US):
The Popp Best Use of Technology & Innovation Award
The Candidate Experience Award
The Wright Path Advisors Specialist Staffing Company of the Year
The TIARA Staffing & Talent Solutions Awards, presented by TALiNT Partners, recognize organizations setting the standard for excellence across the staffing, talent solutions, RPO, and MSP sectors. Finalists are selected by an independent panel of industry leaders evaluating innovation, business performance, and impact on candidates and clients.
Notably, SnapCare’s placement as a finalist for Best Use of Technology & Innovation marks the company’s third consecutive year of TIARA recognition in the technology category, following Best Use of Technology wins in 2024 and 2025.
This continued recognition comes as SnapCare expands the reach of its workforce optimization technology and services. On April 29, 2026, SnapCare announced it had merged with connectRN, bringing together SnapCare’s award-winning workforce platform with connectRN’s industry-leading PRN solutions to better support healthcare organizations and clinicians across a broader range of care settings.
“These finalist recognitions reflect what we’ve focused on from day one: building technology and services that make staffing simpler, more transparent, and more effective for our healthcare partners and clinicians,” said Jeff Grant, CEO of SnapCare and connectRN. “To be recognized again for Best Use of Technology & Innovation, now for the third year running, alongside nominations for candidate experience and specialist staffing, is a powerful validation of our mission and momentum.”
SnapCare’s finalist placement for The Popp Best Use of Technology & Innovation Award highlights its continued investment in automation, data-driven matching, and workflow innovation designed to help healthcare organizations optimize labor spend, improve fulfillment, and strengthen workforce stability.
The recognition as a finalist for The Candidate Experience Award underscores SnapCare’s commitment to supporting clinicians across the staffing journey, from discovery and onboarding to scheduling, communication, and ongoing support, while helping healthcare professionals maintain control and flexibility in their assignments.
SnapCare’s shortlisting for The Wright Path Advisors Specialist Staffing Company of the Year reflects the company’s ongoing growth and differentiation in healthcare staffing, supported by a consultative, strategic approach that blends purpose-built workforce technology with service models designed for the full continuum of care.
“Healthcare workforce optimization requires more than transactional recruiting or simple requisition fulfillment—it demands a specialized approach that balances operational realities with clinician needs,” said Jeff Richards, Chief Strategy Officer at SnapCare and connectRN. “This recognition validates our approach: combining purpose-built technology with deep domain expertise to help providers build more resilient, cost-effective staffing models.”
“Our product philosophy is simple: technology should empower people,” said Firasat Hussain, Chief Product and Technology Officer at SnapCare and connectRN. “Being recognized again in the Best Use of Technology & Innovation category, and as a finalist for candidate experience, reinforces our focus on practical, human-centered innovation that drives measurable outcomes for clinicians and healthcare teams.”
Being recognized across all three categories reflects SnapCare’s continued momentum in modernizing healthcare workforce management through technology and service excellence. With finalist honors spanning innovation, clinician experience, and specialist staffing performance, and a third straight year of TIARA recognition for Best Use of Technology & Innovation, SnapCare remains focused on helping healthcare partners strengthen workforce resilience, control labor costs, and deliver consistent, high-quality patient care. The 2026 winners will be announced on June 3 and 4 at the Hyatt Regency in Atlanta, Georgia.
