Workforce problems in US hospitals are troublesome enough for the American College of Healthcare Executives to devote a new category to them in its annual survey on hospital CEOs' concerns. In the latest survey, executives identified "workforce challenges" as the number one concern for the second year in a row.
Although workforce challenges were not seen as the most pressing concern for 16 years, they rocketed to the top quickly and rather universally for US healthcare organisations in the past two years. Most CEOs (90%) ranked shortages of registered nurses as the most pressing within the category of workforce challenges, followed by shortages of technicians (83%) and burnout among non-physician staff (80%).
