What are the challenges recruiters face when managing a medical team of staff?

Recruiting medical professional staff can be challenging due to several factors. According to various sources, the main challenges faced by companies, hospitals and clinics are:

Hospital and Healthcare employee burnout

Since the onset of the Pandemic in 2020, we have noted an increase of burnout in employees with permanent placements within hospitals and clinics. Long hours, coupled with no breaks and heavy workload makes for a challenging work environment, and unfortunately it is usually the strongest and most dedicated staff members who face Burnout, as their focus and passion keeps them on shift when they should be resting and recuperating for their next shift. This can have a significant impact on the quality of care provided and can affect the overall morale of the healthcare team.

Short Staffed Hospitals and Clinics

Overall, there is a critical shortage of medical and healthcare workers in the workplace. This is likely not due to there not being the correct skilled workers available, but Moreso, where to find qualified professionals when you need them. Ambition24hours has an extensive database of qualified staff who are ready to work!

Recruiting and retaining talent

Recruiting medical professionals can be difficult due to fierce competition. Companies, hospitals, and clinics need to develop effective recruitment strategies, and retain their employees to avoid losing them to competitors. By partnering with Ambition24hours Nursing Agency, we ensure you have the staff you need when you need them, without the risk of your nurses being swept up by a competitor.

Country Regulations and licensing requirements

Compliance and licensing requirements can create barriers to recruiting medical professionals. Companies, hospitals, and clinics need to stay up to date with current regulations to ensure they are compliant.

Communications

Effective communication between healthcare teams can be challenging, especially in a fast-paced and high-pressure environment. Companies, hospitals, and clinics need to invest in communication training and technologies to improve communication and reduce errors.

Hospitals, Clinics and other healthcare institutions across south Africa Face similar challenges when recruiting or attempting to retain staff members, with compliance and validity checks proving to be invaluable, and recruiters at the institution level in some cases don’t have the resources needed to be thorough.
