Everyone who works in a hospital. All of it, exactly as written.
Nurses, therapists, techs, and the people who keep the building running. That sentence is a design constraint, not a slogan — and it is the reason several things about Status Post are harder than they needed to be.
The fact the sentence is built on
Roughly 40–50% of a hospital's headcount is not licensed. Environmental services, food service, transport, unit secretaries, security, sterile processing, health information clerks — there is no registry of any kind, anywhere, that lists them. No license number, no national database, no way to look them up.
Every network built for this workforce so far solved that problem by not solving it: check a license, and whoever has no license is not a member. That draws the line straight through the lowest-paid half of the building, which is disproportionately women of color. We are not drawing it.
What that forces
- The badge stays the credential. It is the only thing everyone in the building has, so the badge path cannot be dropped in favor of license matching. It has to be made safe instead — see how verification works.
- Invites are a first-class way in, not a fallback. A verified member vouching for a colleague is how someone with no registry entry gets through the door.
- Verification is a ladder, not a yes/no. "License-verified RN" and "peer-vouched EVS" are both members. The badge says how someone was checked, and never pretends we checked something we did not.
The name, since people ask
"Status post" — abbreviated s/p — is charting shorthand for "condition after." S/p appendectomy. It is a real term, it carries no compliance baggage, and if you chart, you already knew that.
If you do not chart, it means after. What comes after the shift. What you are building for after you retire. That is the meaning that leads, everywhere, on purpose: a name you have to decode is a test at the front door, and this product cannot have one.
The precedent
A room with clinical and non-clinical staff in it is not a naive idea. Schwartz Rounds run in 700+ healthcare organizations and explicitly convene both to talk about what the work is actually like. That practice, not the wordplay, is the argument for "everyone with a badge."
What we will not do
- We will not sell your data. Not aggregated, not de-identified, not as "insights."
- We will not take health-system money. Every network that did became unable to host an honest post about a hospital. The employer cannot be the customer here.
Clock In, or read the Trust Center first. Most people read the Trust Center first, which is why it is in the nav and not the footer.
