Thank you for the tremendous response to our annual workforce/staffing survey. The results paint an important picture of what’s going on in your facilities.

• Now we need your help before the next legislative session starts to spread the word to Gov. Youngkin and your legislators, so they understand the challenges you are facing despite all efforts to attract and retain more caregivers.

Key findings from the survey include:

• 44% of facilities have put a hold on admissions at least once this year
• 39% maintain waitlist
• 94% are relying on overtime
• 78% face shortages filling shifts

Other ways to help: Like and share posts on VHCA-VCAL’s social media channels: Facebook, LinkedIn, and X.

• This helps boost the association’s visibility with a broader audience.
