In episode 84, Amy Yackowski, founder and chief evolution officer of Painted Porch Strategies, discusses the current state of healthcare staffing. Amy shares her extensive experience in the industry, starting from her early days as a call center staffer in a healthcare staffing organization to her current role, focusing on leveraging technology to connect clinicians with healthcare organizations. The conversation delves into the challenges faced by the nursing profession, particularly the significant attrition. Amy explains that many nurses have shifted towards travel nursing or left the bedside altogether in search of more control and autonomy. Our conversation also touches on the differences in employment models between nurses and physicians, highlighting the benefits and drawbacks of being an employee versus an independent contractor. We explore how healthcare organizations can better support and retain their staff by fostering a culture that values and sees clinicians as essential resources rather than mere commodities. Join us as Amy provides valuable insights into the evolving dynamics of healthcare staffing and the critical need for supportive work environments to combat burnout and improve job satisfaction among healthcare professionals. The better quality nurse you have, the greater relationship that you're going to have with those hospitals and health systems. Over time, you build that trust currency. - Amy Yackowski.
