In the wake of the pandemic, the healthcare industry faces unprecedented staffing challenges. From the scramble for qualified professionals to the evolving landscape of patient care needs, medical groups nationwide are feeling the pressure. But why exactly is staffing proving to be such a Herculean task, and more importantly, what can we do about it?

Our goal today is to navigate these turbulent waters together. We'll examine the latest national employment statistics, delve into the specific challenges faced by healthcare support positions, and arm ourselves with knowledge and strategies to overcome these hurdles.
