#25: Renting Your Airbnb to Traveling Healthcare Workers with Allison Vallerga

Are you looking for a way to make a difference in your community and contribute to the future of healthcare? If you own a short-term rental or an Airbnb property, the healthcare industry needs your help.

Traveling healthcare workers are the backbone of the healthcare industry, providing essential services to patients in areas where medical professionals are scarce. However, finding suitable accommodation can be challenging for these workers, affecting their ability to provide the best medical care.

You can directly impact your community’s healthcare quality by renting your Airbnb property to traveling healthcare workers. You’ll provide a safe and comfortable place for these workers to stay, which will help them maintain their high service standards. 

In this episode, I sit down with Allison Vallerga, a hospital and healthcare administrator who owns rental properties that often host traveling healthcare workers. Allison shares insights on the benefits of renting to healthcare workers and the amenities that will make your property stand out. Plus, she gives tips on pricing your rental property and attracting more healthcare workers.
