The Flexible Workforce Handbook: Curing the Nurse Staffing Crisis
This 102-page handbook is a comprehensive overview of how leading hospitals and health systems are implementing workforce models that address the root cause of the nurse staffing problem – lack of flexibility – to ultimately cure their nurse staffing crisis and get out of daily symptom management.

This Handbook empowers nursing leadership with;
- An overview of ten different flexible workforce models
- A process to conduct an organizational assessment to choose and build the right staffing model for your environment
- Defining the nuts and bolts of best practice staffing and scheduling policies, and how to choose the right workforce technology
