Description:
The pandemic took a toll on US healthcare systems and the healthcare workforce with financial struggles and the Great Resignation, brought on by stress and burnout. This has resulted in critical staffing shortages and low morale among remaining staff. This session will provide a snapshot of the current healthcare financial and staffing situation. We will:
- Review practical solutions and best practices to help with staff recruitment and retention,

Learning Objectives:
