And recent legislation regarding hospital staffing levels will increase the pressure.
It is threatening the ability to meet the growing demand for services.
At our VA and WV associations, we are actively working to address this crisis through initiatives such as caregiver training programs, advocacy, and partnerships with educational institutions.
Together, we can build a strong and sustainable workforce to support our communities.
