OMAHA,
Neb., May 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Medical
Solutions, which connects nurses and allied health clinicians with
hospitals and healthcare systems, has released findings from its
annual Voices of Care survey. One key finding reveals 97.2% of
respondents choose travel nursing or internal travel contracts
versus a permanent position or per diem due to a better salary.
The 2023 Voices of Care survey gathered responses in
December 2023 from 7,117 registered
nurses. The study uses survey responses to provide insights that
can better inform healthcare facilities about characteristics,
attitudes, and behaviors of nurses.
Other reasons respondents considered as important factors in
their decision to travel include reduced involvement in workplace
politics (85.2%), more flexible scheduling (85.1%), and broadened
experience and skills (81.7%).
"The overwhelming response to our Voices of Care survey
highlights the significance of understanding the multifaceted
reasons behind nurses' decisions to pursue travel opportunities,"
said Patti Artley, Chief Nursing
Officer at Medical Solutions. "As advocates for the healthcare
workforce, we are committed to leveraging these insights to
continuously enhance our services and support both our clinicians
and our client facilities."
By leveraging these insights, healthcare organizations can
tailor their recruitment and retention strategies to better meet
the needs and expectations of their nursing workforce.
"With these insights, we're equipped to collaborate closely with
our partners, customizing solutions that not only attract top
talent but also foster a culture of engagement and retention,
ultimately elevating the standard of care across the industry,"
said Scott Armstrong, Vice President
of Client Growth at Medical Solutions.
