The 21% rise in coronavirus cases and 24% jump in hospitalizations evoke war-like memories.

But this battle will look a little different.

Pro: We're Prepared

The speed and severity of the pandemic caught us off guard. The past months and years stockpiling medical supplies, improving treatments and updating surveillance make it unlikely for health systems to experience a repeat of the strain felt in 2020.

Con: We're Already High Risk

The pandemic exposed weaknesses in health systems and the need to create social safety nets and support systems for businesses and individuals. Increased workloads, extended periods of stress and safety concerns caused a spike in burnout and resignations among our nation's caretakers. These haven't returned to pre-pandemic levels; they've normalized at their post-pandemic equilibrium.

We Can't Afford Another Pandemic

Nearly 50% of American clinicians expect to leave their jobs within the next three years. Paired with increasing staffing costs – the 2023 NSI National Health Care Retention & RN Staffing Report prices each vacancy at $52,350 – administrators have become proactive to ensure mass resignations don't become a recurring phenomenon. HR leaders cannot afford for mass resignations to become a recurring phenomenon.
