How much does healthcare burnout and turnover cost healthcare organizations?
We’ve covered healthcare burnout on the podcast and the book, but often, those discussions revolve around the clinician-focused implications. But, staff turnover costs healthcare organizations thousands of dollars for each team member they need to replace. As we discuss in this episode, a single nurse leaving the organization can cost a hospital system up to $46-52,000! Often, many of these healthcare team members leaving the organization do so because of burnout. They simply want out of healthcare. But, what if there was a way to leverage technology and software to reduce the healthcare burnout and turnover rate?
Well, this week, I sit down with Courtney Dill a solutions executive with Health Stream working with their scheduling & capacity management program.
What we cover in this Episode:
- Implementing technology to improve employee and staff engagement & retention
- Leveraging Algorithmic Learning to streamline scheduling & capacity management
- The cost of clinician turnover and recruitment challenges
- The move towards hybrid healthcare
- Building a strong workplace culture and team
- Achieving Better Outcomes through workforce engagement
We’re starting to create videos of certain podcast episodes, including this episode, which can find on the YouTube Channel.
