Healthcare facilities are facing a problem that, if unresolved, will negatively impact the level of patient care, drive costs even higher, and perhaps even result in loss of life: a shortage of skilled healthcare workers.
We go in-depth with Matt Keahey, VP of Operations, and Patricia Sirmon, VP of HR, on how they collaborate at Medxcel to develop and engage skilled healthcare employees.
The team shares how they are changing the narrative about vocational programs by educating students early in their career search. Also, Matt and Patricia take a deep dive into succession planning, especially how it applies to building training programs for future skill requirements, and how they are innovatively recruiting and maintaining employees at Medxcel.
