Late in 2023, Nursa commissioned an independent research survey of 203 hospital executives nationwide to dive into their views on nurse staffing trends. In a Business Wire press release, Nursa announced that the survey results are in, and according to Nursa founder and CEO Curtis Anderson:
“These insights support what we at Nursa know to be true – that a tech-enabled, diversified approach is essential to finding the right formula to improve recruitment, retention, and job satisfaction.”
Nurse Staffing An Ongoing Concern for Healthcare Leaders
The nursing shortage isn’t a new challenge, but the COVID-19 pandemic did amplify it. Survey results show that hospital executives are justifiably concerned:
- Over 50% of hospitals and health systems surveyed reported a nursing staff turnover rate of 20% in 2023.
- Over one-third of respondents reported they had implemented mandatory overtime for their nursing staff.
- 80% of health system leaders believe technology could take on more administrative responsibilities, leaving nurses to prioritize healthcare delivery.
