Do I Qualify?

You may be eligible if:

You entered the U.S. through the foreign nurse recruitment program of Towne Nursing Staff Inc. or Towne Pediatric Homecare LLC
You signed a contract between August 13, 2014 and May 26, 2026
You are identified as an eligible nurse for automatic base payment
Optional: you submit the consent/release form by September 14, 2026 if you want the additional ~15% hours-worked uplift

No claim form needed for the base payment. Eligible nurses are paid automatically from administrator records. To seek the optional additional ~15% uplift, submit the consent/release form on the official settlement dashboard by September 14, 2026.

Automatic Distribution — No Claim Required for Base Payment

Eligible nurses receive the base settlement payment automatically. No claim form is required for that portion. Nurses who want an optional ~15% hours-worked uplift may submit the consent/release form on the official settlement dashboard by September 14, 2026: townenursesettlement.com/dashboard-login.

What Happened?

The lawsuit concerns Towne Nursing Staff Inc. and Towne Pediatric Homecare LLC's foreign nurse recruitment program and related contract practices for nurses who entered the United States through that program and signed contracts between August 13, 2014 and May 26, 2026. Defendants deny wrongdoing and agreed to settle.

The $1,850,000 settlement reimburses any resignation repayment already collected and distributes a pro rata share of the remaining fund based on hours worked. Nurses who join the settlement collective via consent/release receive about 15% more on the hours-worked portion.

Important: the base payment is automatic. Eligible nurses do not need to file a claim form to receive that portion. The September 14, 2026 deadline applies to the optional consent/release form for nurses seeking the additional ~15% uplift.
