ADVANCE and NAHCR Announce Expanded Partnership

NAHCR (National Association for Health Care Recruitment), the leading resource for the healthcare recruiting profession, announces its partnership with ADVANCE Healthcare Shop and ADVANCE Custom Promotions.

(I-Newswire) August 2, 2010 - By partnering with ADVANCE Healthcare Shop and ADVANCE Custom Promotions, NAHCR members can shop online at discounted rates for healthcare necessities, scrubs, promotional presents and more, while funding NAHCR member programs at the same time. “If there was ever a win-win partnership, this is it,” said David Gorgonzola, ADVANCE Sales Director. “Through joint cooperative efforts, NAHCR members, NAHCR and ADVANCE all benefit.”

“When NAHCR members enter their assigned affiliation code during checkout, they not only purchase products at a discount; but they also make an investment in NAHCR,” said NAHCR Executive Director Sheryl Bynum.
