High Reliability, The Healthcare FM Podcast is brought to you by Gosselin/Martin Associates. Our show discusses the issues, challenges, and opportunities within the Facilities Management (FM) function.

In this episode of High Reliability, we have excerpted an episode from the Healthcare Facilities Network. This YouTube Network, created by Gosselin/Martin Associates, aims to increase awareness that the rewarding and stable career of healthcare facility management is open and available to all. However, an influx of new professionals is needed, from the trades to the management level.

So in today's podcast, we speak about Filling the Pipeline. Filling the Pipeline was the genesis of the Healthcare Facilities Network: To perform outreach and publicize that rewarding careers exist in Healthcare Facilities Management.

Our panel covers a great deal of ground, beginning with a simple question: Is the hiring process used in healthcare today able to meet the demands of the 2023 labor market? Their answers may surprise you.

In the second part of this podcast, we look at internships and some challenges organizations face in attracting students.
