May 2026: N.E Co., Ltd. Launches Recruitment Support Service 'CareHub' for Medical and Welfare Businesses Nationwide.

To change the recruitment challenges in the medical and welfare industry, CareHub by N.E Co., Ltd. will launch in May 2026. For many companies, recruitment agencies are an effective means. However, as long as they continue to rely on them, recruitment costs will not be optimized, nor will stable hiring be achieved. N.E Co., Ltd. has launched "CareHub" based on its specialized knowledge in medical and welfare and its on-site understanding cultivated through the operation of its own facilities. It supports the establishment of a stable and reproducible recruitment base in as little as two weeks, guiding management to control recruitment in-house. A New Solution to Recruitment Challenges in the Medical and Welfare Industry. "CareHub," a recruitment outsourcing service for medical and welfare corporations, is a new system that allows external recruitment team functions for a monthly fee starting from 100,000 yen, and is the first in the industry to introduce a guarantee of 50 annual entries and a refund system if targets are not met. Issues of Soaring Recruitment Costs and Industry Structure. In the medical and welfare industry, the cost of recruiting one nurse or caregiver can reach 800,000 to 1.2 million yen, and reliance on recruitment agencies and soaring recruitment costs are putting pressure on management. N.E has continuously asked internally, "Is a structure that constantly relies on recruitment agencies truly beneficial for facility operations?" CareHub is one answer that the company has provided to this question. A Recruitment Model Born from the Field. Our company opened and operates the residential nursing home "Starlight -Chikusa-" in Chikusa-ku, Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture on October 1, 2025, and has continuously faced recruitment challenges as an on-site operator. At this facility, we achieved 13 hires in the past year, stabilizing necessary personnel while keeping recruitment costs to approximately 290,000 yen per person, without relying on recruitment agencies. The utilization rate of recruitment agencies is also controlled at approximately 16.7%. Residential Nursing Home "Starlight -Chikusa-". Recruitment is "Controllable." To reach this idea, there were times when almost no applications were received even after posting job advertisements, and the necessary personnel were not "reached." By continuously addressing such challenges, we arrived at the perspective that recruitment can be controlled. CareHub Service Details. CareHub is a service that provides the "mechanism for attracting applicants" cultivated there to external parties. It comprehensively handles everything from selecting recruitment media to creating and managing job postings, and promptly and immediately coordinates initial contact with applicants, interviews, and facility tours. By continuously designing appeals that focus on "how to convey" information, which influences the number of applications even under the same conditions, it creates an environment where on-site staff can concentrate on their original care duties. Pricing Designed to Commit to Results. With the annual guarantee of 50 entries and a refund system if targets are not met, a pricing structure that takes responsibility for results is adopted. While retaining the operators' hiring decision-making, the most burdensome initial tasks are outsourced. Future Outlook. From management that worries about "whether they can recruit" to management that "can control recruitment"—. We will expand a sustainable recruitment model that breaks away from agency dependence as a new standard in the medical and welfare industry nationwide.
