There is No Single Way to Be the Difference.

At CareSource, the difference is you. Our more than 7,000 employees are what make CareSource a great place to work. With our strong culture of belonging, we celebrate our similarities and our differences as we encourage employees to bring their authentic selves to work. Meet a few of our #UniquelyCareSource employees.

Apala - Operations Scrum Master

Born and raised in Nepal, Apala lived in California, Virginia and Maryland before working for CareSource as a contractor. After only six months, Apala convinced her husband CareSource was worth the move to Ohio. “A few factors that made us stay were the people, the inclusive culture, the unlimited growth possibility for anyone willing to work hard and give their best, and of course the great property values.”
Apala joined CareSource as a Business Analyst. Since then, she has expanded her skills, knowledge and work experience through several key roles, including Technical Business Analyst and her current role as Scrum Master.
Apala joined the APIC (Asian and Pacific Islander Community) ERG to represent the Southeast Asian Community as a Nepali. “I have a lot to offer and add to the diversity of CareSource.” As a daughter from a household of all girls, Apala also joined WEN (Women’s Employee Network). “This ERG represents women all around the world and from different walks of life.”

Darin - Manager, Behavioral Health

Darin’s career at CareSource has advanced from being a Case Manager, working with members facing physical and mental health challenges, to his current role as Manager of Behavioral Health, where he assists large hospital systems and focuses on Behavioral Health provider operations.

Growing up with little exposure to cultural variety, Darin appreciates being a part of an organization that provides a safe place for individual expression and celebrates both similarities and differences. He serves as the acting Vice Chair of the MHA (Mental Health Advocates) ERG.

“One thing I can say about CareSource is how accepting and welcoming people are, even leadership. I have reached out directly to Directors and VPs and never once was ignored or made to feel like I was not important enough to connect with. Those welcoming interactions have significantly impacted my ability to move into different roles and now management.”

David - Associate Vice President, Facilities Services

As an Army veteran and a retired fire officer, David has been dispatched to many medical emergencies, transporting patients to numerous hospitals. These experiences helped David realize that people do not always have equal access to health care — a stark reality that brought him to CareSource.
David is also passionate about fellow veterans and firefighters who have become family. “I am very driven about sharing and preserving veteran history. The volunteer time I invest at the Dayton VA through the American Veterans Heritage Center provides numerous opportunities that bring me joy and allow me to feel as though my efforts make a difference.”

David ensures that fellow veterans find the camaraderie and support they need through his role as Civil Affairs Officer for the Military and Veteran Support Unit (MVSU) ERG.

“The CareSource mission and culture made it an easy decision to become a part of this larger team connecting members to needed resources. Inclusion has always been, and continues to be, very important for me personally and professionally. It’s about giving equal access and opportunities and removing barriers.”

"When we can bring our full selves to work, it helps others to see people as people. CareSource creates a space for me to bring all of me to work even when the people I work with look, act and believe differently than I do.”
