In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare industry, finding and retaining top talent is more challenging than ever. The healthcare talent shortage is a pressing issue, impacting patient care and organizational efficiency. Enter Hireology and Activated Insights (formerly Home Care Pulse)—two powerhouses joining forces to tackle this problem head-on with a new integrated partnership.
Why the Partnership Matters
The collaboration between Hireology, the top-rated applicant tracking system (ATS) built for home care and facilities-based care organizations, and Activated Insights, the leading provider of training, recruitment, retention, experience management and recognition tools to improve and grow long-term and post-acute care organizations, marks a significant step forward. Together, the two solutions empower long-term and post-acute care organizations to quickly attract top-tier Caregivers, RN and CNA talent and ensure long-term retention.
Addressing the Critical Talent Shortage
This partnership comes at a time when the healthcare talent shortage is more alarming than ever before. Experts predict a need for approximately 200,000 new nurses by 2031. Compounding this issue, 18% of new nurses leave their jobs within the first year, resulting in hiring and training costs ranging from $28,400 to $51,700 per nurse. This high turnover rate makes maintaining a fully staffed healthcare team a daunting task.
Hireology’s CEO, Adam Robinson, underscores the importance of leveraging advanced technology and processes to stay competitive in the challenging healthcare hiring market. “Given the disparity between talent supply and demand along with high turnover rates, remaining fully staffed becomes a nearly impossible task without effective technology and processes,” says Robinson. This partnership with Activated Insights promises to deliver a comprehensive solution to these challenges.
The Triple-Edged Goal of the Partnership
The collaboration between Hireology and Activated Insights is designed to achieve three primary objectives for home care and facilities-based care organizations:
Maximizing Quality Hires and Minimizing Turnover
With Hireology’s best-in-class ATS and partnerships with top job sites like Indeed, healthcare organizations can attract top-quality nursing candidates. The streamlined approach ensures that only the best candidates are selected, reducing turnover and enhancing the quality of care provided.
Streamlining Hiring Processes
The integrated capabilities of Hireology and Activated Insights streamline the entire employee lifecycle. From attracting and interviewing candidates to a seamless employee onboarding process, the hiring process steps become more efficient and less time-consuming. This holistic approach ensures that every step is optimized for maximum effectiveness.
Recruiting and Retaining Top Talent
Activated Insights enables the hiring and retention processes for long-term and post-acute care organizations, and excels in automating outreach and engagement, allowing organizations to connect, qualify, and interview top caregivers quickly.

Retain focuses on reducing employee turnover, especially during the critical first 100 days when the risk is highest.
