Our Mission...
The Mission of the Northeast New York Association of Health Care Recruiters (NENYAHCR) is to foster a relationship amongst those persons responsible for the recruitment function for hospitals, nursing homes, staffing agencies, and all other organizations employing healthcare professionals at any level as well as to enhance that relationship with information, education, advocacy and development of successful tools for recruitment.
About NENYAHCR...
NENYAHCR was formed during a nursing shortage in the early 1980’s by a small group of hospital Nurse Recruiters to network and share ideas for recruitment.
During the 1990’s, that group expanded to include all healthcare recruiters at hospitals, nursing homes, and staffing agencies. Through the years we have struggled to maintain our network, but have built a strong alliance amongst the recruiters from many different facilities.
Today our numbers have increased to include recruiters from home health agencies, physician’s networks, and agencies dealing with disabled persons.
We meet 9 times per year; sponsor two healthcare only job fairs in conjunction with Workforce New York and have built a good relationship with the Iroquois Hospital Association.
In the future, we hope to sponsor some education programs, establish a healthcare scholarship and develop strategies to deal with healthcare shortages while maintaining a strong network of recruitment professionals.
