Looking for feedback from home health agency and assisted living owners, administrators, managers, and recruiters: I've been seeing a lot of social media posts about how difficult finding caregivers, home health aides, and certified nursing aides can be -especially in rural communities. It is extremely common for skilled nursing facilities to use temporary healthcare staffing agencies to assist when they are understaffed, why don't home health agencies and assisted living facilities do the same? I have been extremely lucky with successfully recruiting and hiring compassionate, qualified, and reliable caregivers for my personal services agency. I would love to share the talent pool by offering temporary healthcare staffing assistance to home health agencies and assisted living facilities. If you are interested in trying this out, let's learn together! Maybe we can set a new standard in providing the care our aged and disabled community members need and deserve! #homehealth #seniors #homecare #assistedliving #tempstaffing #staffing #caregiver #HHA #CNA #seniorservices #seniorliving #ageinplace

Here's a bit of a preview of that post I need to rewrite, and some thoughts and observations relevant to my future career. We might imagine that hospitals are precisely operating and perfectly constructed machines. In an ideal world, all of the pieces would fall together perfectly, everything would synchronize perfectly, and a hospital would be the neatly organized and perfectly orchestrated environment we might expect and hope it to be. (In a truly ideal world, there would be no need for hospitals, but that's another line of thought entirely.) In reality, that's not how it works. Hospitals, other healthcare environments, and the greater medical system are, of course, made by people. Therefore, they share something with anything else made by people - they're imperfect. The pieces don't always fall neatly together. Emergencies don't happen on schedule, we haven't found a cure for every illness, those neat little white rooms aren't always properly maintained. Even when a healthcare professional knows exactly what they can and should do at a particular moment for a particular patient, there may be three other people who need their care just as urgently all at once, and some vital piece of equipment or item or medication may be hiding away in the bottom of a dark cabinet somewhere, ordered a day or week or month too late by someone who hopefully, if they were very lucky, was able to procure the right part. Sometimes, by their very nature, hospitals seem to be constructed out of pure chaos. Somehow, though, amazing things can happen amidst all that chaos. Intelligent and experienced and compassionate people weave their ways through it and get done what needs to be done. Lives are saved, again and again, every single day. I think I'd like to be a part of that. I'm Mallory Schwartz. I'm looking at entering medical school and a future career as a doctor. On my way there, I'm interested in a role in patient care. I want to be a part of that chaotic, confusing, seemingly miraculous, life-saving world. I'm seeking roles in patient care as the beginning of my path into the medical field. I'm interested in finding work in, around, or accessible for someone living in Port Washington, NY - nearby communities including Manhasset, Great Neck, and others. Some potential titles include: • Patient Care Coordinator • Healthcare Coordinator • Care Manager • Case Manager • Client Services Coordinator • Health Navigator • Care Planning Specialist • Clinical Coordinator • Social Services Coordinator • Wellness Coordinator

Joneigh S Khaldun, MD, MPH, FACEP thanks so much for lifting up the critical CHW workforce. We at IMPaCT Care believe that the keys to advancing CHWs are: 1) financing and 2) infrastructure to enable CHWs. We all know CHWs can do magic, but it takes the right infrastructure --hiring, training, technology-enabled workflows-- to do magic at scale. We are thrilled to be partnering with CVS Health on building your CHW workforce! This is a big step toward remaking the American health workforce in service of equity and efficiency.

Recently, I asked you what is the most important thing organizations should do to support and advance the community health worker workforce. Nearly 50 percent of poll respondents said improving financing mechanisms is critical. The private and public sectors have more work to do to effectively support this important member of the healthcare workforce. When we invest in community health workers, they are able to address health disparities in local communities and improve health outcomes. I am proud of the work we are doing at CVS Health to support this critical workforce, through initiatives like the Community Equity Alliance and embedding community health workers into our care management teams. #communityhealthworkers

🏥 Community Health Centers: A Vital Safety Net Under Stress 🌟 Did you know that 1 in 11 Americans relies on federally designated community health centers for essential medical care and social services? These centers play a critical role in providing healthcare to low-income individuals and families across the country. Here's what you need to know: ✅ Community health centers serve as a lifeline for millions, offering routine medical care, social services, and even fresh food to those in need. 📈 Since 2012, there has been a 45% increase in patients seeking care at these centers, resulting in over 15,000 locations nationwide. 🩺 Unfortunately, many centers are understaffed, making it challenging to meet the growing demand for healthcare professionals, including doctors, mental health experts, nurses, and dentists. 💰 Funding remains a constant concern, with budget debates making long-term planning and hiring difficult. 🌎 These centers are essential, especially in underserved communities, as they address health disparities and offer preventive care to reduce the burden on hospitals. Community health centers build trust in their communities by understanding the unique needs of their patients. For example, Plaza del Sol Family Health Center in Queens serves a predominantly Latino neighborhood, requiring staff to speak Spanish fluently. Despite their tireless efforts, these centers need additional support to continue their invaluable work. Increased federal funding is essential to match rising patient numbers and healthcare inflation. Let's recognize and support the incredible work of community health centers as they continue to make a positive impact on countless lives. 💪❤️ #CommunityHealth #HealthcareHeroes #SupportCHCs
