The San Diego Association for Health Care Recruitment (SDAHCR) is an organization that is dedicated to the advancement of the health care profession within San Diego County.
We achieve this by creating an environment where Recruiters, Human Resource professionals, educators, advertising agencies, health care publications, internet sites as well as others that are interested in health care recruitment can come together to exchange ideas, participate in professional development opportunities, network with each other and celebrate our successes.
Membership is open to professionals that are responsible for recruiting new talent into their health care organizations, as well as other organizations that support the health care recruitment community with their goods and services.
Unfortunately at this time, we are unable to accept membership requests from organizations that generate direct revenue through the placement of other individuals into health care organizations.
