SAN DIEGO, Nov. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- New clinical and leadership jobs that didn't exist a decade ago are emerging from the transformation of our national healthcare system, according to the results of a just-released survey.
The survey, Emerging Roles in Healthcare 2014, polled more than 300 clinical and human resources leaders nationwide about trends in hiring and training for new and emerging healthcare positions. Many of the new positions are arising in response to new regulatory incentives and mandates from the Affordable Care Act, particularly for transitioning from volume- to value-based care. Other factors such as controlling costs and providing care for an aging population also were cited in the survey from the Center for Professional Advancement at AMN Healthcare (NYSE: AHS), the leading innovator in healthcare workforce solutions and staffing services.
Among survey respondents, 86 percent said they recognized the growing need for new types of healthcare positions, but relatively low percentages, in many cases, said they are actively preparing for this need.
"Both the data and the comments gathered by the survey show that healthcare leaders understand the importance of these emerging roles in the new healthcare environment," said Marcia Faller, RN, PhD, Chief Clinical Officer at AMN Healthcare. "But not that many healthcare enterprises are actively recruiting or training for these jobs, especially when it comes to new strategic leadership roles."
