Quick Answer: Healthcare organizations choose Lincoln Healthcare because it combines personal recruiting with real clinical experience. This woman-owned firm places physicians, nurses, allied health professionals and administrative staff through direct hire, contract, contract-to-hire and executive search. Clients work directly with responsive recruiters and get flexible options at boutique pricing. Our Healthcare Services Manager is a nurse with more than 22 years in the field, so every hiring conversation stays grounded in how care actually works.
Hiring Is Harder Than It Used to Be
Patient demand keeps rising, and the pool of clinicians has not kept pace. Hospitals, clinics and care facilities all compete for the same nurses, therapists and administrators, and the ones that hire slowly tend to lose candidates to the ones that move fast.
A staffing decision also reaches further than the open position. A poor hire puts strain on your current team, your schedules and eventually your patients. A strong one lifts all three. That belief shapes everything we do at Lincoln Healthcare, the healthcare division of Lincoln Group, and it is a big reason more employers are choosing us as a long-term partner.
A Personal Approach, not a Transaction
Lincoln Group is a woman-owned firm, and our healthcare practice is built on one idea: your hiring needs are as particular as your organization. So before we present a single candidate, we learn how you operate.
We ask about:
(1) Your culture and values
(2) The workforce problems you are dealing with today
(3) Your plans for growth
(4) What your leaders expect from a new hire
(5) The clinical and operational demands of the role
A resume shows credentials. It does not show whether someone will thrive on a busy unit or in a small outpatient team. Knowing your setting lets us recommend people who can do the job and are likely to stay in it.
You also get direct access to experienced recruiters who answer quickly and own the result.
Staffing Options That Fit the Situation
Not every vacancy needs the same fix. A growing workload, a leave of absence and a leadership gap each call for something different, so we offer several routes:
(1) Direct hire for permanent roles you want to fill with the right long-term person.
(2) Contract and per diem staffing when workload spikes or the budget cannot yet support a full-time employee.
(3) Contract-to-hire when you want to see how someone performs before making the commitment.
(4) Executive search for senior positions such as chief nursing officers, administrators and C-suite leaders.
Our process covers the whole placement, including recruitment, onboarding, compliance management, payroll and retention, so your internal team is not left holding the loose ends. Whether you need one important hire or help with a larger expansion, we shape the plan around your goals and your budget.
Who We Place
Our candidates are carefully vetted and cover both clinical and non-clinical needs:
(1) Physicians and nursing: physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, RNs, LPNs and CNAs
(2) Allied health: physical, occupational and respiratory therapists, radiologic technicians, pharmacists, pharmacy technicians, dental hygienists, dietitians and surgical technicians
(3) Administrative: medical assistants, receptionists, billing and coding specialists, office managers, health information technologists, schedulers and case managers
(4) Executive: chief nursing officers, administrators and other senior leaders
We support health systems, hospitals, trauma centers, outpatient clinics, long-term care, dental practices, diagnostic centers, laboratories, hospice, home care, behavioral health, detox programs and holistic wellness providers.
Quality Care Without Inflated Costs
Budgets are tight across healthcare, and standards cannot drop to fit them. We built Lincoln Healthcare to offer cost-effective recruiting and staffing without cutting corners on service.
Being a boutique firm helps. We stay flexible, respond quickly and keep our pricing competitive, while still giving the individual attention that clients often miss at larger national staffing companies.
Leadership That Has Worked in Healthcare
One of our biggest advantages is that our team has lived the work. Sara Baker, BSN, RN, CVRN-BC, our Healthcare Services Manager, brings more than 22 years of nursing and healthcare leadership experience. She joined Lincoln Healthcare full-time in July 2025 and has been central to growing our healthcare division across the United States.
Her background means we understand the pressures your managers face when they hire and try to keep good people. We speak the language of healthcare, so you spend less time explaining your needs and more time meeting candidates.
Technology That Keeps Hiring Moving
Delays cost you candidates. Our scheduling and communication tools speed up interview coordination and keep everyone informed, which helps open roles get filled faster. Candidates have a smoother experience too, and that matters when strong professionals have several offers to choose from.
Conclusion
Healthcare hiring works best when your staffing partner understands both your people and your patients. Lincoln Healthcare brings personal service, flexible staffing models, competitive pricing and genuine clinical experience to every search. We want to help you build a stronger workforce, not just fill an opening. If you are facing shortages or planning to grow, talk with our team about your next hire.
