The healthcare staffing industry has been in the spotlight for its vital role during the pandemic and the subsequent normalization that followed. However, as we move into 2025, long term trends are shaping the future of the sector. According to SIA’s US Healthcare Staffing Market Assessment: 2024 Update, these trends offer both challenges and opportunities for staffing firms like Aequor. Here’s a closer look at the key insights and how Aequor is responding to these evolving trends:
The U.S. faces a significant nursing shortage, with 193,100 openings projected annually, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Fortunately, there’s promising news: the number of nursing graduates increased by 36% in 2023 compared to 2019, totaling 250,078.
This influx of new talent has the potential to ease the nursing shortage, reduce burnout, and improve patient care through better nurse-to-patient ratios.
Aequor’s Approach:
At Aequor, our nurse recruiters go beyond simply filling positions—they’re dedicated to building meaningful relationships with each nurse. Our recruiters provide ongoing support to new- and seasoned- travel nurses, ensuring that every nurse feels valued and empowered. By fostering these strong connections, we’re not only helping new travel nurses succeed but also strengthening the overall healthcare workforce to meet growing demands.
SIA reports that employment of nurse practitioners (NPs) and physician assistants (PAs) is projected to grow by 45% and 27%, respectively, between 2022 and 2032. These advanced practice providers play a crucial role in addressing physician shortages, particularly in underserved areas, due to their versatility, cost-effectiveness, and high patient satisfaction rates.
Aequor’s Strategy:
Aequor actively recruits NPs and PAs, connecting them with facilities where their expertise is needed most. Our strategic partnerships with healthcare providers help bridge critical gaps and expand access to quality care.
The scalability of digital platforms transformed healthcare staffing during the pandemic, SIA cites that the market for travel nurses growing by 340% from 2020 to 2022. By 2023, platforms accounted for over 20% of U.S. temporary staffing revenue across travel nurses, per diem, and allied health professionals.
These platforms streamline recruitment and placement processes, enhancing efficiency and transparency for both facilities and clinicians.
We’re continuing to invest in advanced staffing technology that provides seamless experiences for our candidates. Aequor’s Talent Portal offers our travelers self service with a personal touch. This technology ensures faster placements and more personalized staffing solutions, meeting the needs of today’s healthcare environment.
The future of healthcare staffing is dynamic, with trends like increasing nursing graduates, growing demand for advanced practice providers, and the adoption of digital platforms reshaping the industry. SIA’s insights underscore the need for adaptable, forward thinking strategies.
