Semper Forward and USA Care Living Partner to Connect Veterans with Meaningful Healthcare Careers Nationwide

Green Bay, WI —

Green Bay, WI — September 10, 2026 — Semper Forward, a Division of Fastport, a workforce pipeline organization connecting military-affiliated talent with career opportunities nationwide, today announced a strategic alliance with USA Care Living, a no-cost healthcare placement service for veterans and military spouses. The partnership will connect transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses within the Semper Forward network to meaningful, well-paying careers across the healthcare industry — from direct patient care to clinical and healthcare administration roles.

Healthcare organizations across the country continue to face persistent staffing shortages, while veterans and military spouses often struggle to translate hands-on medical, logistics, and leadership experience gained in service into civilian healthcare careers. USA Care Living was built to close that gap, matching military-connected candidates with senior care and healthcare organizations that value the discipline, compassion, and mission-driven mindset veterans bring to patient care.

For Semper Forward, the alliance extends the organization’s mission of building direct pathways from military service to civilian careers into one of the fastest-growing employment sectors in the country, giving candidates in its network a trusted, no-cost route into healthcare work.

Under the partnership, Semper Forward will refer transitioning service members, veterans, and military spouses in its network to USA Care Living’s placement team, who will provide personalized career coaching, resume support, and direct introductions to healthcare employers across the country. USA Care Living brings established, coast-to-coast relationships with senior care and healthcare organizations, along with 24/7 candidate support throughout the job search and transition process.

The program is available immediately to eligible candidates nationwide, with no cost or commitment required to begin.

“Semper Forward exists to open real, direct pathways from military service into civilian careers, and healthcare is one of the highest-demand paths our candidates can take. USA Care Living has already built the employer relationships and support system to help veterans and military spouses succeed in this field, and this partnership lets us put that resource directly in front of our network at no cost.” — Brad Bentley, President, Fastport

“Veterans and military spouses bring exactly the discipline, composure, and care that healthcare organizations need. Partnering with Semper Forward lets us reach even more of these candidates early in their transition, when the right guidance can make all the difference in finding a career that fits their skills and their families.” — Tom Belli, Co-Founder & Operations Manager, USA Care Living

  • Five-plus years of experience placing veterans and military spouses in healthcare roles nationwide
  • A 98% candidate satisfaction rate and a 4.9 average rating
