Health care institutions will face
two enormous workforce challenges in the next two decades:
hiring and retaining sufficient workers, and ensuring
that those workers have the talent to meet growing patient
expectations of quality, access and cost.
Health care is not the only sector confronting these
challenges. Almost every business sector will face a
talent shortage in the coming years. The aging of the
workforce, changing values of work-life balance, continued
evolution of productivity-increasing technologies, and
the globalization of products and workers are fundamentally
altering the workplace. But in health care, these changes
hit an industry already plagued by accelerating costs,
declining prices, burdensome regulation and new performance
standards.
