Carolinas Healthcare Public Relations and Marketing Society

CAREERS

Healthcare is the largest industry in America. The aging population combined with continued medical advances will significantly increase healthcare demand and career opportunities. At the same time, the severe workforce and leadership shortages that already exist in many health professions are projected to worsen. As a result, tremendous career opportunities exist and will continue to grow in various healthcare professions, including marketing, public relations and planning.

Healthcare careers offer numerous rewards including making a difference in the lives of patients and their families, intellectual challenge and continuous learning, attractive compensation and benefits, security and the ability to work anywhere in the world. Unlike most other industries, healthcare continues to grow and thrive.

Although the healthcare industry is growing strong and has considerable opportunities, there are still significant challenges in the way that healthcare is financed and delivered. The growing number of un-insured, insufficient access to care, rising costs and concerns about quality and medical errors are critical, complex issues. We need talented, capable leaders and professionals to develop and implement innovative solutions to these and other critical public health issues.

CHPRMS is here to help its members cultivate their careers. We are committed to providing worthwhile networking opportunities where members can interact with other professionals in the field and build strong relationships - the cornerstone of the healthcare industry.
