Yes. Unfortunately, that is how they work. Partly I suspect because they tag along with the slowest person in the group. If you use the ranger or elementalist henchmen then the healer will stay behind them and out of range of the warriors. In one game, Drasca was AFK for a bit and we pressed forward, only to realize our much needed healer was AWOL. We back tracked to find her chatting nonsense to Drasca. After prodding Drasca, we could resume the mission. Again, I would think the healer should try to stay nearest to the leader to heal at the tip or the spear where the most damage should be occuring.
