The Care Recruitment Challenges in Hereford

Herefordshire faces unique challenges compared to other UK regions.

An ageing population:

The county has one of the highest proportions of over-65s in the UK, driving strong demand for care homes and residential services.

Rural geography:

With many small villages and rural communities, recruiting and retaining qualified staff can be harder than in major cities.

Healthcare pressure:

Providers such as Wye Valley NHS Trust and Hereford’s private hospitals rely heavily on agency staff to cover skills gaps.

Children’s services:

Local children’s homes struggle to find qualified support workers and managers due to safeguarding and training requirements.

That’s why having a local recruitment partner with knowledge of Hereford’s care sector is so important.
