In this episode of The Truth About Travel Nursing Podcast, host Kyle Schmidt breaks down the recent changes to the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and what they mean for travel nurses. With aggressive new rules from the FCC taking effect in 2025, travel healthcare professionals may finally have tools to combat the flood of unsolicited calls and texts from staffing agencies and job boards.
Kyle explains:
-
The basics of the TCPA and how it protects consumers
-
How the FCC’s new “one-to-one consent” requirement closes the lead generation loophole
-
Why blanket consent is no longer valid for robocalls or robotexts
-
The importance of the National Do Not Call Registry
-
How staffing agencies and job boards must now clearly disclose who will contact you—and how
-
What rights healthcare professionals have to sue for violations (up to $1500 per incident)
-
Why these changes matter and how professionals can still protect themselves with tools like burner numbers
This episode is a must-listen for any travel nurse fed up with spammy recruiter outreach—and for staffing companies looking to stay compliant.
