WHICH HEALTHCARE POSITIONS ARE THE HIGHEST IN DEMAND?
WHICH HEALTHCARE POSITIONS ARE THE HIGHEST IN DEMAND?
During the pandemic, the job market was wide open for healthcare professionals willing to work in COVID-19 hot spots. As the urgency around COVID declines, demand has decreased a bit. But this changing landscape doesn’t mean that surgical healthcare workers are not as needed. In fact, recruiters are seeing encouraging job growth in areas that were scaled back, or even shut down, during the pandemic, as well as in areas that may or may not be related to the pandemic.
Surgical Centers Need Workers to Clear the Backlog of Procedures
In the early days of the pandemic, the government recommended the cancellation of elective procedures. The nation’s healthcare system was under attack and needed all hands, and personal protective equipment, on deck to manage the rising tide of COVID cases.
Healthcare providers found it necessary to step back and reconsider the infection control measures necessary to resume elective surgeries. Despite the surgical moratorium, elective surgery rates rose after April of 2020 as viral testing rolled out and the healthcare system adapted to the new normal, but many surgeries remained on hold as the nation continued to grapple with new and ever-changing pandemic rules.
Today, we are back to normal, and recruiters are now seeing an increase in openings at surgery centers, for both nurses and allied healthcare professionals, as surgery centers work to clear the backlog of procedures.
Surgical areas in need of nurses include operating rooms, post-anesthesia care units, and pre-operative care units.
Positions that are currently experiencing a greater need include surgical technicians, perioperative nurses, ambulatory staff, endoscopy staffing, radiology technicians, mental health therapists, which are all essential to providing the best quality healthcare.
Emergency Departments Need Surgical Staff, as well
The spring is looking bright as the nation fully embraces travel and outdoor activities. The increase in the number of people traveling away from home can be expected to result in the usual bumps, bruises and breaks that land weekend warriors in the emergency department.
Now, recruiters are noticing an uptick in emergency department openings for surgical staff as COVID transmission rates decline and people are more comfortable being around others.
