Schooner Healthcare Services, a leading marketing, communications and business development consulting firm for health care companies and nonprofit organizations, celebrates five years of service to the industry. In recognition of this milestone, Schooner Healthcare has expanded the services it offers to clients and revamped its website to reflect these changes.  Visitors to www.schoonerhealth.com will find an easy-to-navigate site with a fresh look, Blog Central, latest issue briefs and other news, and guidance on how to get one’s company noticed in the marketplace.

Garry Carneal, Schooner Healthcare president & CEO, founded the company five years ago to address the need for health care companies to gain traction in growing their businesses. “Especially in light of the social media phenomenon, many companies simply aren’t geared to enter this communication spectrum,” Carneal says. “Technology is changing rapidly, and Schooner can provide the staff and support to help health care organizations get their company noticed through the most advanced methods of communication – whether it’s YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn or Facebook.”

Carneal says Schooner’s team of industry professionals brings a combined source of dynamic talent to boost clients’ profits and industry-wide recognition.  “Researchers, writers, editors, designers, information technology experts, strategic planners, project managers, customer relationship management – Schooner has it all,” he adds.

Rob Pock, president of TCS Healthcare Services, Auburn, CA, says that engaging Schooner over the past five years has been one the best investments he has ever made as CEO. “Garry Carneal and his team have supplemented and enhanced our staff’s efforts to provide consistent product-branding client communications.”  TCS Healthcare was one of Schooner’s first clients.
