Our take

Continued challenges in talent recruitment and retention mean that the UK healthcare workforce faces significant staffing shortages. Lifted empowers healthcare organisations with its workforce enablement platform.

As the healthcare labour market becomes more competitive and complex, care providers are under pressure to expand talent pipelines and remain compliant. Lifted sits within the broader healthcare workforce solutions market, positioned to help providers not only fill critical roles but also improve operational clarity and reduce administrative burden.

Having pivoted from its former role as a care management platform for patients, Lifted now focuses on the workforce, supporting recruitment, onboarding, compliance and sponsorship processes with AI-powered solutions. As the healthcare recruitment pipeline faces increasing pressure, Lifted helps companies expand their talent pipelines and remain compliant, all whilst reducing admin overheads and fine-tuning operational clarity

With its patient-focused background, the company has a ready-made customer base in healthcare organisations. With the need for care predicted to double in the next 15 years, Lifted is pivoting to a gap in the market at the right time
