While pay is undeniably a major factor, the No. 2 reason (selected by 85% of respondents) was to escape workplace politics 🤯 Creating supportive, healthy work environments is critical to cut burnout and attract talent. Patti talks about how staffing companies and facilities can do this effectively.

Many years ago, deep in hospital operations and clinical quality improvement, I came to think of the agency nursing model like the unemployment rate - even when our health system is at it's healthiest, could we ever be at zero? This is a short, thoughtful piece from the CBC/Radio-Canada on the prevalence of agency nursing.

I really love this article and its review of the current literature in the #Nursing context. I do think that we can learn a lot from other non-healthcare experts on staffing shortages and burnout as well. Specifically, I have found Jennifer Moss's work on #Burnout and #Retention to be especially insightful and thought provoking. It can be hard to implement "business" recommendations in the public healthcare world however, since system factors and characteristics tend to be limiting. For example Healthcare managers with 100+ direct reports, as well as the fee-for-service model or payment-for-results requirements. However, I do believe it is time we take a deep dive in to system re-design where we consider both employee experience and patient experience to improve the overall #humanexperience in healthcare. https://lnkd.in/gVReADHw
