🛑🚨Sound the Alarms! 🚨 🛑 IT IS HERE! The CMS Staffing Mandate is here, whether we love it or hate it. The time to act is NOW! ⏰ 📢 Here's a quick rundown: ✅ Nursing homes must provide a minimum of 3.0 hours per patient day of direct care. ✅ This includes 0.55 hours by a registered nurse and 2.45 hours by a nurse aide. ✅ Non-rural facilities have 3 years to comply, while rural facilities get 5 years. ✅ 24/7 RN coverage will be required, with a longer phase-in period for rural providers. ✅ There's an option for hardship waivers. ✅ CMS may consider a more demanding standard. Why waste another minute using outdated sourcing methods when you can save thousands and have a highly qualified team of professionals: ✔️ Write your copy  ✔️ Post your job ads on 10k job boards  ✔️ Utilize geotargeting methods to reach hard-to-find candidates  ✔️ Prescreen those incoming candidates So that your internal team is only investing their time on interviewing ready-to-work candidates rather than wasting it sifting through people that applied by accident? Don't let the Staffing Mandate catch you unprepared.

This is an interesting article as a follow up to my posting from earlier today regarding staffing shortages impacting hospitals. https://lnkd.in/g_HX86eT

The ACHE's end-2023 hospital CEO survey put "workforce challenges (e.g., personnel shortages)" at the top of the list (again). Underneath that- 86% marked "RN shortages" and 79% marked burnout among non-MD staff as top priorities All these tie together, but reminder that the shortage is NOT just patient demand > RN supply- it's mounting dissatisfaction among RNs at the bedside, turning to agency and other alternative employers as a result Hospitals still are the employer of choice for most RNs- back in 2019, I had a high-performing employee leave us after finishing her degree, with a clear rationale: "Hospital nursing is why I just got my RN, and it's what I want to do next" BUT this status as "employer of choice" is fading, driven by old systems and processes. At In-House Health our platform allows hospitals to deliver a modern employment experience. Our impact often starts with our Workload Optimizer, which saves hospitals ~10% on labor costs, while building more appropriate shifts and reducing burnout

We become an augment of your team, look like your team and handle full-cycle - increasing your full-time hiring to fill the slots and eliminating ongoing spend on expensive travelers.

We can mandate anything at the state and federal level - including new #staffing regulations and higher staffing minimums. But without commensurate funding and #workforcedevelopment solutions, those mandates will ultimately mean nothing for improving patient care. With an impending federal #nursinghome staffing mandate, a potential state #hospital staffing mandate, and new staffing regulations for PA nursing homes, the question must be considered: where will we find these new workers? And how will we afford to meet their wages? The Pennsylvania Health Care Association shared these concerns as staffing proposals loom in Harrisburg and Washington, DC. We’ve been proud to work with our partners in government to boost quality care - but is this sustainable?
