Staffing for Critical Moments.

Obsidian exists to solve a specific problem what happens when providers can’t deliver? When vital shifts go unfilled, services are put under pressure — and patients feel the impact. That’s where we step in, focusing on the most critical staffing needs.

Our Story.

Built for Urgency.

Obsidian was founded in 2020 to fix a clear problem: essential healthcare shifts were going unfilled when it mattered most. We created a service focused on one thing — delivering trained professionals into urgent, high-pressure roles. Every system and process we’ve built supports that mission: fast, reliable staffing that meets the highest standards. Today, Obsidian supports healthcare services across Ireland with cover that demands experience, preparation, and the ability to act — immediately and effectively.

The Problem We Solve.

Filling the Gaps. When No One Else Can.

When critical shifts go unfilled, services are left exposed and patient safety is put at risk. Framework and PSL providers often struggle to cover last-minute roles, particularly in specialist areas. Obsidian is built for these situations. While other suppliers focus on longer-notice staffing, we do the opposite — providing rapid, reliable cover at short notice to ensure our clients maintain safe staffing levels at all times.

This Is Obsidian.

Obsidian provides healthcare providers with exceptional staffing solutions, resolving hard-to-fill ad-hoc shifts and long-term placements quickly and reliably.
