Affinity for Rural™

A predictable, heart-led recruitment model built for rural healthcare and the communities that depend on it.

Why We Built Affinity for Rural

Rural America deserves a recruitment model built for its reality — not the big-city systems traditional agencies were designed for. 

Rural hospitals are carrying enormous weight with:

 

  • limited resources
     
  • turnover
     
  • leadership gaps
     
  • shrinking candidate pools
     
  • and vendors who treat rural like an afterthought

We created Affinity for Rural because rural teams need

 

  • predictability instead of surprises
     
  • a partner, not a vendor
     
  • ** candidates who understand rural living**
     
  • storytelling that speaks to the heart, not algorithms

This is rural work. It deserves rural-led solutions.

Who This Is Built For

Phase 1 — Rural Healthcare (Current Focus)

 

Affinity for Rural is designed for organizations on the front lines of rural health, including:


  • Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs)
     
  • Rural PPS hospitals
     
  • Rural Health Clinics (RHCs)
     
  • Tribal health programs
     
  • Rural behavioral health
     
  • Long-term care facilities
     
  • County & district hospitals


These are the facilities carrying the weight of care in small communities — and the reason this model was created.

Rural Community Employers (Future Expansion)

 

As rural communities grow and stabilize, Affinity for Rural will expand to support additional local employers such as:


  • Local schools & youth programs
     
  • City, county, & district agencies
     
  • Community nonprofits
     
  • Family-owned businesses
     
  • Restaurants, cafés, & small retailers
     
  • Campgrounds, RV parks, & outdoor shops
     
  • Rural banks & credit unions


Because rural sustainability is bigger than healthcare —
it’s about the whole community.
