If you’ve received healthcare services in the last few years, you’ve likely encountered one of the growing frustrations in the field that drastically affects our ability to provide care to our communities: the healthcare worker shortage. The healthcare worker shortage is more than an industry challenge. It is a crisis that touches every corner of our community. When there aren’t enough skilled professionals to meet the growing demand for care, the ripple effects are felt everywhere, from longer wait times to limited access to critical services.
At Comprehensive Healthcare, we see this as a call to action. That’s why we’ve spent the last year planning, developing, and launching a brand-new recruitment initiative and have doubled down on supporting our staff. We want to ensure our communities continue to receive the high-quality care they deserve.
In partnership with Talent Works, Comprehensive Healthcare has embraced a new approach to recruitment marketing. By refining our employer brand, we have highlighted what makes our organization an exceptional workplace. Through targeted social media campaigns, storytelling that features our employees, and a revamped careers website, we have been able to attract candidates who align with our mission and values.
“Our recruitment efforts aren’t just about filling positions – they’re about connecting with individuals who share our passion for making a difference,” says Cassidy Brown, Director of Marketing and Communications. “With Talent Works, we’ve amplified our message and shown potential hires that Comprehensive Healthcare is where they can thrive.”

Together, we developed a strong employer brand that highlights our unique culture, mission, and the opportunities we offer. This brand forms the foundation for a range of materials crafted specifically to attract top talent, from visually engaging digital ads to print collateral for career fairs and community outreach. Our campaigns span both physical and digital spaces, including targeted social media efforts and banner ads in high-traffic spaces in our communities.
The tagline for the new recruitment campaign is simple but powerful: What we do means more. This phrase reflects the profound impact of the work we do at Comprehensive Healthcare. It’s a reminder that every role within our organization, from frontline caregivers to administrative support, contributes to something bigger: transforming lives, fostering resilience, and creating hope. This tagline underscores why we’re committed to attracting and retaining individuals who are passionate about making a meaningful difference.
The tagline extends beyond our employees’ profound impact on clients and the community—it also reflects the opportunities we provide for their success. What we do means more signifies more than just meaningful work; it represents a commitment to our staff’s growth, well-being, and professional fulfillment. Through programs like tuition reimbursement, student loan repayment, robust training opportunities, and leadership development initiatives, we ensure our team members have the tools and resources to excel. Additionally, staff wellness programs—including access to mental health resources, employee assistance programs, and comprehensive health benefits—underscore our dedication to supporting their overall health. We value innovation, foster autonomy, and ensure every employee’s unique perspective is heard and appreciated. At Comprehensive Healthcare, What we do means more starts with investing in our people.

“In my nearly 38 years with Comprehensive Healthcare, I’ve been strongly supported in my professional development,” shares Greg Aubol, Director of Kittitas and Sunnyside Services at Comprehensive Healthcare. “This has allowed me to advance my clinical and leadership skills, leading me to a series of career paths by starting as a mental health worker, and then advancing to a therapist/DCR, team supervisor, and eventually a director role.”
The campaign’s results have already demonstrated its value, with a noticeable increase in applications and growing interest from candidates who align with our mission and core values.
As we continue to navigate the challenges of the healthcare worker shortage, Comprehensive Healthcare remains steadfast in our commitment to investing in our people. By prioritizing employees’ wellness, providing meaningful growth opportunities, and innovating our recruitment strategies, we are ensuring that our workforce remains strong in the face of the shortage so that we can continue providing more programs and services to our communities.
