Things You’ll Learn:
- There was about a 27% turnover for nursing in the United States in 2022; after 2023 more than half of healthcare systems will be in a severe shortage.
- A third of all staffing dollars and a quarter of all staffing hours are provided by contract labor.
- Most travel nursing contracts range from 12 to 13 weeks on average.
- Nurses have never had the right financial structures or incentives to consider patient care a career.
- ShiftMed works with W-2 employees and pays their payroll taxes, giving them workers' compensation and other benefits like transportation.
- ShiftMed allows health systems and facilities to book employees weeks in advance and change their needs as the time comes close. Still, it also allows them to book guaranteed shifts, which are appealing to employees as they will have some security.
