With about one in 10 posts unfilled, NHS organisations face an acute staffing crisis – threatening patient care and safety, and adding to the pressures on remaining staff. There are no short-term fixes to this problem, but the development of integrated care systems does offer some powerful remedies.
Rather than competing for staff, ICS member organisations can coordinate workforce management to dramatically strengthen their staff offer – providing better career pathways, easier job transitions, and faster promotions. They can combine forces to recruit within their communities, aggregate training and offer new courses and qualifications. And they can identify skills gaps across the system, plugging them in the short term through redeploying staff, and in the long term by building new staff recruitment and development programmes.
This HSJ webinar, run in association with DXC Technology, will explore how integrated care boards can help to address the NHS’s staffing challenges by improving cross-system workforce management.
