Default COUNTIF STOPS COUNTING

I used the following formula to count the number of times "NPRP served"
appears in a worksheet column: =COUNTIF(H3:H38,"*NPRP served*"); but it stops
counting if there is too much text before the target text appears.

Why does this happen and how do I get round it?

Please help.
