MODULE 4

HR Planning, Recruitment, Selection & Staffing

Name: Trisha Jay Suaybaguio, RN

Synthesis:

Nurses are vital to delivering great patient care. It should go


without saying that a strong recruitment and retention strategy to
find and keep the best nurses for your hospital is essential.

But we also know the reality. The nursing shortage is a real


issue that puts strain on hospital resources. Sometimes a hospital
simply needs to fill positions as quickly as possible, but Nurse
Managers could have bigger problems 6 months down the road if
those nurses aren’t a good fit.

With large numbers of older workers retiring and nurses in high


demand, nurse recruiters, hospital administrators and other involved in
the hiring process must be proactive to attract younger millennial
nurses. So what are these nurses looking for and what works for
bringing them board? Millennial want opportunities for growth.
Because most of the millennial want to be part of the team and
exercise autonomy and an opportunity to make decisions.

Moreover, many of the hired millennial nurses continue in


master's program while starting a new job. Second, millennial also are
interested in the benefits facilities can offer. In my own opinion,
maybe most of us are after of the benefits of what the facility can
offer. Many of us want a work-life balance. We nurses are not just
working to advance or make difference, we want fulfilling lives. We
want to enjoy life, not spend all of our time working.
Another is, millennial work well on a team and want to belong
and feel valued. The word is collaboration, they have a lot of opinions
and want their opinions to be heard. Lastly, millennial nurses are
technologically savvy. Social media plays a role in millennial's lives.

Even before the COVID-19 pandemic crisis took hold, it was no


secret that the healthcare industry faced enormous nursing shortages.
The corona virus crisis put a new focus on the acute need for qualified
nurses.
