As PowerToFly outlined in a new report, healthcare organizations today are in a state of crisis. The pandemic was a crucible that exacerbated an already-dire landscape, with more healthcare worker burnout, turnover, and shortages than ever before.

Now, healthcare administrators and recruiters are competing to find the staff they need, keep their doors open, and prepare their workforces for the future. Urgent action is needed to address the recruiting and retention challenges that healthcare leaders are facing across a number of critical roles — and this action can also be used to make long-overdue improvements to the diversity of healthcare as a whole.

As our report found, a number of key positions in healthcare continue to skew white; in the U.S., 81% of RNs, 70% of the LPN/LVN workforce, 57% of physicians, and 70% of project deployment managers are white. This, when we know that diverse healthcare teams lead to better patient outcomes, particularly for patients from marginalized backgrounds.

In this free, urgently topical Chat & Learn, Amanda Imperial, HR and People Operations Leader at PowerToFly, and Zara Chaudary, DEIB Impact Manager at PowerToFly, will join forces to discuss:

  • Where the healthcare industry currently stands in terms of hiring and retention
  • Practical recruitment strategies for healthcare leaders to implement now
  • Employee engagement techniques to reduce turnover
  • And more!
