Q2 2024 Healthcare Staffing Update
As has been the case in the healthcare staffing sector for the better part of the past 12-24 months, firms placing candidates within niche care settings are the one to continue to receive elevated interest from investors. Meanwhile, the agencies providing more commoditized services such as travel nurse staffing, particularly through the use of either an MSP or VMS, are still viewed as less appealing and with higher levels of diligence.
According to Kaufmann Hall, approximately 60% of hospitals in the US have seen profits improve due to a reduction in contract labor spend. While this could benefit staffing agencies in the long-term, it currently emphasizes the need for differentiation amongst competitors and demand for the highest quality candidates. While travel nursing has declined significantly, home health and personal care aides and nurse practitioners are projected to see the most increased use given an aging population and as site of care continues to transition from the acute to post-acute care setting.
