CareJobs.Now

What CareJobs.Now does

CareJobs.Now provides a remote, read-only MCP endpoint for exploring open healthcare jobs in the United States. Its data covers listings from hospitals, health systems, clinic groups, care companies, and job boards, including roles such as nursing, CNA, physician, advanced practice, therapy, pharmacy, technical, caregiving, and front-office work.

Search results can include the job title, employer, job category, stated hourly pay, shift, location, and a CareJobs.Now page where the user can apply. The service reads career-site listings daily and covers more than 170,000 open jobs across its broader job dataset.

How it works

MCP-compatible clients connect to the remote endpoint at https://carejobs.now/api/mcp. The server exposes six tools and does not require an API key. Requests are read-only: they retrieve job, employer, compensation, and market information rather than creating or changing records.

The search tool accepts optional filters, so an agent can make a broad query or narrow results by job type, state, shift, and pay. Other tools provide aggregated views. Pay data is calculated from hourly rates stated in open listings and excludes shift differentials and bonuses. Market data includes current openings, jobs first listed within the last seven days, and weekly listing counts.

Tools and capabilities

• search_healthcare_jobs finds open roles and returns job details with employer and application-page links.
• get_healthcare_pay reports median and typical ranges by job type, employer, or both. It also identifies employers posting the most for a job type.
• get_healthcare_job_market summarizes open-job volume by job type, state, and employer, including employer slugs used by related tools.
• get_healthcare_jobs_by_state compares states or drills into a state and job type, with pay, leading towns, leading employers, and newest jobs.
• list_healthcare_employers filters employers by name, care type, state, or job type and shows hiring locations, open jobs, and posted pay. It also identifies AI-training programs and job boards in the source set.
• get_healthcare_employer provides one employer's hiring footprint, openings by job type, posted pay, newest and best-paid roles, and links to its pages and jobs.

Setup and configuration

Use an MCP client that can connect to a remote MCP server and configure the server URL as https://carejobs.now/api/mcp. No API key is needed. The service is intended for read-only queries; users follow returned CareJobs.Now links to apply for individual roles.

Limitations and notes

Compensation reflects hourly rates explicitly posted in the available listings. It is measured before shift differentials and bonuses, so it may not represent total compensation. A market-rate result is calculated for a job type only when at least three employers post one. Shift information is included only when a job listing states it.

The server reports current listings and daily-read data, so job availability and counts can change as source career pages update. Employer, job-board, and AI-training-program entries are represented in the employer-oriented tools, while job-search results identify the employer for each listing.
