Healthcare workers are the backbone of any healthcare system. A diminishing workforce, however, has experts believing there will be a shortage of more than three million healthcare workers by 2026. While the demand creates some obstacles, it also presents new opportunities for current and emerging healthcare works in today's workforce¹.
