PowerHouse House of Healthcare is a German specialist in staffing for the healthcare and social services sectors. Through its established brands and specialist teams, it gives organizations access to qualified professionals in some of the most critical areas of the German labour market. Its ambition is clear: to become Germany’s leading staffing partner for highly qualified healthcare and social service professionals.

In a market shaped by structural talent shortages, House of Healthcare believes that specialization matters. Its credo is simple: experts talk to experts. Its teams understand the professions they recruit for, the environments their clients operate in and the needs of the people they employ and place.

House of Healthcare is active in three areas of expertise. Nursing is covered by avanti. Elderly care, education & social services is covered by pluss, with education & social services as an important strategic growth area. Doctors are served by the specialist brands DOCWISE, DOCSTR and LOCUM. Together they cover a broad spectrum of highly qualified healthcare professions.

What sets House of Healthcare apart is specialization at scale. Its brands are specialists in their own markets, while being part of a larger group provides the scale, infrastructure and capabilities of a bigger organization. Healthcare is a people business, so human proximity remains at the heart of how they work: personal relationships, accessibility and trust. And because staffing shortages can directly affect patients and residents, House of Healthcare aims to be reliable when it matters, including when qualified professionals are needed at short notice.

House of Healthcare also stands for responsible and sustainable staffing. Its approach is designed to complement clients’ own workforces rather than compete with them through unsustainable employment practices, backed by high standards of compliance, employee welfare and ethical business practices.

Its way of working is summed up in one line: Human first. Tech enabled. House of Healthcare combines close relationships and specialist expertise with increasingly digital, data-driven processes in recruitment, matching, onboarding, compliance and workforce management. The goal is to build one of Germany’s leading platforms for specialized healthcare and social staffing, and to make sure healthcare and social institutions have access to the people they need.

As a PowerHouse of House of HR, House of Healthcare houses several Boutiques in Germany. House of Healthcare Professionals brings together avanti and pluss, specialized in nursing, elderly care and education & social services. DOCSTRS brings together DOCWISE, DOCSTR and LOCUM, specialized in the recruitment and placement of doctors. These are complemented by smaller specialist brands such as Westermann Personalservice, ICC Medical, CareWorker, Career People and e-recruit.
