The Intersect HR Difference

Built for Organizations That Can't Afford to Get HR Wrong

Most organizations don't lack HR knowledge. They lack the capacity to act on it at the right level. Intersect HR closes that gap — directly, without handoffs.

Enterprise Experience, Right-Sized Delivery

18 years of multi-state healthcare HR leadership — compensation structures, systems implementations, acquisition integrations, and operational turnarounds across hospice, palliative care, and rehabilitation services.

You Work With the Founder Directly

No account managers. No junior consultants. No handoffs. Every engagement is led by Josh Wipke from scoping to delivery — the person you spoke with is the person doing the work.

Systems Depth That's Rare in HR Consulting

Hands-on experience with Greenhouse, Paylocity, Viventium, HomeCare HomeBase, iCims, bSwift, and more. Strategy informed by how your systems actually work — not just how they should in theory.

Healthcare Operations Crossover

Deep familiarity with hospice, palliative care, rehabilitation therapy, and public health systems — including the regulatory environment, workforce dynamics, and acquisition complexity specific to this sector.

Who We Serve

Organizations at an Inflection Point

Intersect HR works with organizations between 250 and 500 employees navigating strategic and structural HR gaps.

Healthcare Organizations

Hospice, palliative care, rehabilitation therapy, home health, and public health systems navigating workforce complexity, multi-state compliance, and clinician retention challenges.

Growth-Stage Companies

Founder-led or PE-backed organizations scaling past 250 employees that need HR infrastructure, compensation strategy, and systems to match their growth trajectory.

Organizations in Transition

Companies navigating mergers, acquisitions, leadership changes, or systems migrations that need senior HR partnership to manage complexity without losing momentum.
