Registered nursing was predicted to be the <a href=\"http:\/\/advertise.nurse.com\/how\/#job-board\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">top occupation in terms of job growth<\/a>. The RN workforce is expected to grow to nearly 3.2 million by 2024, a 16% increase over that same 10-year period, according to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.beckershospitalreview.com\/human-capital-and-risk\/how-5-health-systems-are-recruiting-retaining-nurses-during-an-rn-shortage.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">January 2016 article in Becker\u2019s Hospital Review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Patricia Pittman, PhD, coordinator of the GW Health Workforce Institute at Georgetown University, said in a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.healthleadersmedia.com\/hr\/2016-healthcare-staffing-trends\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">2016 article in HealthLeaders Media<\/a> that \u201cby 2022, nearly one in eight U.S. jobs is projected to be in the healthcare sector,&#8221; noting the primary drivers of this trend are demographics and technology.<\/p>\n<p>The years ahead look bright for employment in healthcare and for nursing in particular. That means those who are involved in healthcare recruitment or retention will have their work cut out for them.<\/p>\n<h3>The nursing recruitment and retention cycle<\/h3>\n<p>Whether you are a nurse recruiter, hiring manager or human resource professional in charge of talent acquisition, your goal is attract the highest quality staff and create a welcoming workplace environment that provides opportunities for employee advancement and growth.<\/p>\n<p>Making the right hiring decisions is important to your success, but you also need good retention strategies to hold onto high performing employees.<\/p>\n<p>When nursing recruitment is going well, you are able to identify the best applicants and make the right hires. When employees do well and stay, they contribute to improved patient quality and reduced staff turnover. Both add to the organization\u2019s reputation and help with future nursing recruitment because job seekers want to join great organizations. And the cycle continues.<\/p>\n<h3>The recruiter&#8217;s special role<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019ve always admired recruitment specialists for being the employee\u2019s entree into the organization. It\u2019s an amazing responsibility and, in many ways, a great privilege.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the marketing, advertising, resume reviews and initial assessments you handle, you conduct comprehensive interviews to determine with management which applicants\u2019 educational backgrounds and work experience will fit best. You give information to management, complete needed paperwork and provide applicants with the facts they need to decide on the position. But that\u2019s just the beginning \u2014 it continues long after the first handshakes and job offers.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/advertise.nurse.com\/contact-blog\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11442 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/advertise.nurse.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"250\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1-768x192.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1-200x50.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1-400x100.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1-600x150.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.nurse.com\/solutions\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Nursecom_MediaKit_B2B_April2019_1000x250_V1-800x200.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You work with managers, supervisors and education team members to ensure every employee has the right introduction to the organization, department and unit, including a quality orientation, appropriate skills assessments, mandatory training sessions and more.<\/p>\n<p>You assist them in becoming satisfied, permanent members of the organization, and feel good knowing you helped them get started. Whatever great career advancements they make after that, you can be proud it all began with you.<\/p>\n<p>Unquestionably, your role in the recruitment-retention cycle is a vital one.<\/p>\n<h3>Best practices for recruiting nurses and retaining them<\/h3>\n<p>As healthcare recruiters, you always want to ensure you are doing everything you can to bring in the highest quality talent and that your organization has the right environment and policies in place to keep them.<\/p>\n<p>Here are some general concepts to consider to ensure you have the best employment practices in place:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Establish hiring and screening policies and procedures<\/strong> to attract and recruit the best possible pool of job seekers. Identify the best nursing recruitment initiatives used by your organization and other successful industry recruitment best practices.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Offer an attractive salary and benefits package.<\/strong> Nurses want to work for organizations that invest in their employees.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Bring in the best applicants for interviews<\/strong> following the initial job application and screening process. Test applicants to measure their strongest talents and skills.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Provide strong onboarding and enculturation programs<\/strong> to ensure new employees feel welcome and are properly trained to do their jobs.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Nurture your best new hires and share their success stories with staff.<\/strong> Promote your best performers into more challenging roles to stretch their limits.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Invite veteran nurses to be preceptors and mentors for younger workers.<\/strong> Leverage the skills of your best employees to help others.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Create a professional and welcoming environment for all employees<\/strong>. Ensure managers are properly trained in company policies and procedures and on the appropriate treatment of subordinates.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Offer staff upward mobility opportunities<\/strong> within the organization. Seek and find the best career opportunities for employees. Facilitate employee access to continuing education and new certifications.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Follow national HR trends and best practices for employee retention,<\/strong> and institute the best of those to help reduce unnecessary turnover.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Keep current on research findings and best practices<\/strong>. Establish statistical and other measures to quantify how your employees are doing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Healthcare organizations cannot provide quality patient care without quality staff. Your recruitment specialist position is a multi-faceted one, but at its core your role is to find the best employees and then work with management to keep them. That may sound simple to some, but it\u2019s not \u2014 and you know that better than anyone.<\/p>\n<p>You face many nursing recruitment challenges based on the demands of the current healthcare system.<\/p>\n<p>As you continue to work within your professional recruitment circles to share best practices, increase your knowledge and hone your skills, remember that every hire counts and each great career begins with you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Healthcare recruiters know the focus on nursing recruitment and retention will continue to grow as the industry faces
