Welcome to Colorado Provider Recruitment

Colorado Provider Recruitment (CPR) focuses on expanding the primary care workforce throughout Colorado’s rural and urban underserved healthcare communities. CPR offers recruitment and retention services to healthcare providers and employers. Our unique program connects providers, who are passionate in serving safety-net patients, with their perfect Colorado home. Let our Recruitment Team help you explore rural communities and get to know our state.

Why Choose CPR

In working with CPR, you will find that we are committed to connecting healthcare providers with a community whose unique character best suits their personal and professional needs.

A NON-PROFIT RECRUITMENT PROGRAM

Our focus is on finding an ideal fit for both the healthcare provider and community. With retention rates higher than the state average, our focus is on quality, not quantity.

WE ARE LOCALLY-BASED

Our team is locally-based in Denver, CO and travels extensively throughout the state visiting the rural communities and employers we work with daily. We know rural Colorado!

OUR LONG-STANDING RELATIONSHIP

After more than 10 years, CPR has worked with over 80 communities and has recruited over 175 healthcare providers.

Testimonials

"Our experience with CPR has been great! The best part of working with the recruitment program was getting to know the process and being comfortable working with all of you. This was the first time for our clinic to step out and recruit and it has been a great learning experience. You answered all my questions in a timely manner and the recruits we looked at were all qualified for what we needed."

Judy KendallBoard Member, South Routt Medical Center

"Thank you so much for the great job you are doing for the people in rural areas and the providers who would like to join them."

Teresa Corrigan, Family Nurse PractitionerCPR Candidate

“I would recommend the Colorado Rural Health Center’s Colorado Provider Recruitment service without reservation or hesitation to any organization in the state looking to add a provider to their staff. The staff is excellent and very easy to work with and provide excellent customer service. They deliver high caliber providers, who are really interested in working within your community, not just resumes of providers who want to work in Colorado. They provide, by far, the best recruiting value based on the results that we’ve seen and the resources we’ve invested!”

John J. Ayoub, FACHECEO, Melissa Memorial Hospital

"I was looking for a change that would allow me to make a difference in a small rural Colorado community. CPR helped me to put things in motion and guided me through the process. Serving as a CO rural health primary care provider has been a satisfying both professionally and recreationally. My wife and I haven't looked back since we left the more urban areas of Colorado!"

"Many thanks to you and to all at the Colorado Rural Health Center for your assistance in helping me find a new position!"

"Your last presentation was excellent; we really do appreciate what you do immensely and believe that you are often a strong catalyst in driving students into the direction of not only rural medicine, but primary care as a whole. Thanks for all you guys do!"
