Our Story

Building a Better RN Workplace, For Nurses Who Deserve Better

Availo was born from frustration. When our founder Yathartha's Sister in Law, a Med-Surg RN in the Bay Area, spent countless hours applying to vague job listings with hidden pay and ended up in a toxic unit, we knew there had to be a better way.

We built Availo to solve the biggest pain points in the Med-Surg job search: hidden salaries, vague job descriptions, and toxic unit cultures. Our team of former Med-Surg nurses and tech experts is committed to bringing transparency to nursing jobs in the Bay Area.

Honest Answers to Your Real Questions About Unit Culture Transparency

Everything you need to know about how we help you find supportive units

Are Unit Culture Profiles Anonymous? I'm Worried About Retaliation.

Absolutely. All nurse reviews on Availo are 100% anonymous. We never collect or store personally identifiable information with reviews. We use enterprise-grade encryption, remove IP addresses, and even obscure specific dates and details that could reveal your identity. Your safety and career security are our top priority – share your experience without fear.

How Can I Trust These Unit Culture Profiles? Are They Real RN Reviews?

Every review undergoes our rigorous 3-step verification process: 1) RN credential verification, 2) employment verification, and 3) manual content review by our nursing team. We only publish reviews from verified nurses who've actually worked in the unit. We also analyze patterns across multiple reviews to ensure consistency and flag outliers. This isn't random opinion – it's reliable, verified insight from your peers.

Will Hospitals Retaliate or Try to Suppress Negative Reviews?

Hospitals cannot remove or censor legitimate reviews. Our legal framework protects nurse free speech, and our anonymous review system safeguards individual nurses. Progressive hospitals actually use our data to improve their units, as transparency benefits everyone. Our "Hospital Response" feature does allow facilities to explain improvements they're making – but original RN reviews remain untouched and unfiltered.

Are Unit Culture Profiles Always Up-to-Date? Unit Culture Can Change.

Unit cultures evolve, which is why we date-stamp all reviews and weight recent feedback more heavily in our scoring. Our Unit Culture Score recalculates automatically when new reviews come in. We also alert users when significant management changes occur that might impact culture. If you see outdated information, our "Request Update" feature instantly notifies nurses who've worked in that unit to provide fresh insights.

Will Negative Reviews Hurt Hospitals & Make It Harder for Them to Hire?

Transparency isn't anti-hospital – it's pro-improvement. Hospitals with truly toxic units should struggle to hire until they fix the underlying issues. We've seen units use Availo feedback to identify and resolve cultural problems, transforming into highly-rated workplaces that attract top talent. Our hospital partners report that transparency makes recruiting easier in the long run by matching the right nurses to the right units, reducing turnover and increasing satisfaction.
