Why we need to increase workforce productivity in healthcareTransforming care delivery to meet the increasing demand for healthcare staff

Shortages of nurses and radiographers are a growing global problem: There are almost 44,000 nursing vacancies across the NHS¹ and vacancy rates for radiographers in the U.S. doubled in two years only². At the same time, aging populations and a growing burden of chronic diseases are dramatically increasing the demand for healthcare³. The result is a looming gap between the growing demand and the lack of healthcare staff.

The most effective strategy to meet this challenge is to increase workforce productivity.

Find out how eliminating waste and reducing non-value-adding activities in conjunction with enabling individual growth will ultimately increase workforce productivity.

Prof. Michael Forsting, University Hospital Essen, explains workforce-related challenges in radiology and how to address them.
