Why Healthcare Organizations Should Invest in Recruitment and Hiring Consulting

Staffing pressures continue to be a major challenge across long-term care (LTC) facilities nationwide. Agency staff became the life raft that kept many nursing homes afloat throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. However, thousands of skilled nursing facilities still rely heavily on agency staff to cover gaps across all shifts while simultaneously navigating new federal staffing mandates.

These ongoing staffing challenges can have detrimental effects on day-to-day direct care operations, which can result in the inability to provide optimal resident care, unsafe staffing ratios, state survey citations, and more.

While relying on per diem and agency staff to fill shifts quickly may seem like it's working in your favor, it's merely a temporary fix to a deeper issue. There's a better way.

That's where LeaderStat steps in to offer customized workforce solutions to senior living organizations who are looking for long-term sustainability.  Our industry experts support nursing homes, assisted living facilities and continuing care retirement communities (CCRCs) by helping them develop and capitalize on recruitment and hiring processes.

Our goal is to address recruitment issues at their core and provide realistic solutions that can be implemented quickly.  That's why we are partnering with organizations to be part of the long-term staffing solution in senior living.

What is Recruitment and Hiring Consulting?

LeaderStat's comprehensive, three-phased approach allows us to identify and address healthcare staffing issues at their core. Our expert consultants will conduct a thorough on-site engagement, and follow up with a comprehensive written report that includes findings, recommendations, and a realistic action plan for long-term implementation.

Each Recruitment and Hiring Consulting engagement is completely customizable. We understand that each facility is different, and that services "a la carte" may be the best choice, depending on each unique staffing scenario.

We recommend that healthcare organizations commit to our multi-phase program to gain a deeper understanding of the staffing issues at play. 

How will this benefit my organization?

We understand that it can be challenging to find and retain full-time staff, especially after relying on agency for the past three years. We also recognize that it is nearly impossible to plan for the future and sustainable operations while being stuck in staffing survival mode. 

We're here to help healthcare organizations take a breath, take a step back, and look at the bigger picture. Instead of the short-term sprint that leaves you gasping for air, we'll partner with you for the long game.

We will evaluate your recruitment and hiring strategies to determine how to improve the candidate experience, streamline current processes and reduce overall agency spend. 

What happens after the on-site evaluation?

After LeaderStat consultants observe building operations across multiple days, they will complete a remote analyses of the findings. 

Clients will receive a comprehensive written report that includes findings, recommendations, and a realistic timeline that includes action steps for implementation.

Finally, clients will receive ongoing support via remote meetings with their dedicated LeaderStat contact to help ensure implementation goals are being met.
