2024 Caregiver Onboarding Experience Report A Re-Think is Due (2)

 

The post-acute care industry is at a crossroads, and managers and administrators are in the center of the storm.

Staffing shortages and high employee turnover are recurring problems that home-based and facility/community-based care know ALL TOO WELL.

When turnover strikes, everyone suffers.

High employee turnover starts with onboarding – and when you dig in to onboarding standards in post-acute care today, it doesn’t look good.

And the sad part is, nobody's talking about it. It’s a problem that has been swept under the rug for far too long. That's why we decided to take matters into our own hands and conduct a comprehensive study investigating the onboarding processes in agencies and facilities across the country.

Managers and administrators can have a huge impact on the steps their organization take to better engage, motivate, and retain their caregiving staff.

The study significantly advances our knowledge of what it takes to recruit and retain caregivers in today’s highly competitive workforce market. The onboarding process is fully within the control of the employer, and the study shows that doing it right pays dividends. Most notably, many of the elements of successful onboarding are simple improvements in the process that bring a real return on investment. I would encourage all of home care to learn from this study.

A really excellent report. So much of our industry advocacy is centered on reimbursement in order to compensate direct care workers more adequately. While that issue is certainly intrinsic throughout, the report goes beyond it and offers a clear blueprint for providers to engage and support its caregivers from day one in order to set the employee-employer relationship up for success. And, many of the changes this report calls for in onboarding practices could be implemented next week. These aren’t all long-term organizational structure changes, they’re simple practices that every provider should be considering.

Onboarding is an often overlooked, yet critical, part of running a successful agency. There are many great takeaways from Viventium's report that we’ve already implemented and found to make a difference in the caregiver onboarding experience. Offering our new hire packets in both English and Spanish so caregivers can onboard in their native language and using Viventium’s onboarding solution to make onboarding easy for new hires even when they don’t come into the office has made our onboarding process more efficient than ever before. The right practices along with the right technology will change the game for the industry and help us tackle our staffing challenges.
