This CE meets eligibility requirements to recertify the Certified Surgical
Services Manager (CSSM®
for the CSSM®
) credential, and eligibility requirements to apply

credential, administered by the Competency and Credentialing Institute
(CCI). CCI is a leader in credentialing and nursing competency assessment,
certifying over 35,000 CNOR®

y 2024, the demand for registered
nurses in the US will top 1
million, according to the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS), with the largest
gaps seen in hospitals in the South
and West.
B
The RN workforce is expected to
grow 16%, from 2.7 million in 2014 to
3.2 million in 2024, but there is a projected
need for 649,100 replacement
nurses in the workforce, the BLS says.
Some hospitals are paying thousands
of dollars for travel nurses to fill
gaps or offering hiring bonuses. The
cost nationwide for travel nurses nearly
doubled over a 3-year period to $4.8
billion in 2017, according to Staffing
Industry Analysts, a global advisor on
workforce issues.
Billions of dollars also are spent on
recruiting and retaining nurses, judging
by Reuters interviews with more than
20 hospitals in 2017. For example:
* HCA Healthcare is investing millions
of dollars in benefits such as tuition
reimbursement, student loan repayment,
and extra family leave in an
effort to increase nurse retention.
Benefits would include coverage of
certifications for specialties such as
surgery.
* Dallas-based Tenet Healthcare is offering
sign-on bonuses of $10,000
to $15,000 for experienced nurses
and up to $25,000 for nurses in certain
geographically challenged areas.
* UCHealth, a nine-hospital system in
Colorado, Wyoming, and Nebraska
with more than 100 clinics, is offering
relocation allowances and signing
bonuses of up to $10,000.
Hospitals are
spending huge
amounts of money
to attract and
retain nurses.
* Inova Health System, a six-hospital
system in the Washington, DC,
metro area, is offering a $20,000
sign-on bonus and up to $20,000 in
reimbursable location costs for candidates
with at least 2 years of critical
care experience who live more
than 50 miles from its hospitals.
* WVU Medicine, an eight-hospital system
in Morgantown, West Virginia,
plans to offer tuition reimbursement
for employees and their children in
fall 2018.
* Stamford Health in Stamford, Connecticut
offers a 12-week orientation
program that pairs them with
experienced mentors in medical or
surgical units.
* Greenwich Hospital, a part of the
Yale New Haven Health System,
piloted a 12-month OR nurse residency
program last year. The first
five nurses graduated in January
2018.
Until supply increases, the shortage
of nurses will hurt hospital margins as
organizations try to attract nursing talent
with higher salaries and other costly
incentives, says a recent Moody's reContinued
