New Jersey’s rich diversity is reflected in our healthcare workforce. Among NJ’s nurses and “nurse extenders” like certified nurse assistants, 87% are female, 61% are people of color, 39% are immigrants and 28% are age 55+. Our final panel of NJHA’s workforce summit today discusses their essential contributions to our workforce – not only filling critically needed jobs, but also reflecting New Jersey communities. Many thanks to our moderator NJHA’s Amina Razanica, MBA, FHFMA and panelists Julie Ellis, MBA, SHRM-SCP of Inspira Health and Ken Caldera of Kessler Institute for Rehabilitation.??

This afternoon’s panel at NJHA’s workforce summit is digging in on fierce competition for healthcare professionals. It comes from neighboring states along with other industries like education, retail pharmacies and insurance companies. Growing the healthcare talent pool begins with “talking about the why” - healthcare’s mission of caring, service and making a difference in people’s lives. NJHA’s Cathleen Bennett moderates a great panel with Beth Green, SPHR, PCC of Cooper University Health Care and Mary (D'Apolito) Deno of RWJBarnabas Health.

Healthcare faces a supply-and-demand imbalance for critical jobs: The demand grows with an aging population and more mental health needs. But supply challenges include an older workforce, education pipeline constraints, burnout, desire for remote work and immigration policy. By 2032, we project a healthcare jobs gap of 80,000 in NJ. With our “Projected Workforce Need” panelists Dr. Donna Ciufo of Hackensack Meridian Health, Rhonda Jordan of Virtua Health and Raymond Brandes of NJHA at today’s Workforce Summit.
