It’s no secret that nursing pay, and pay for healthcare professionals in general, shifted dramatically from 2019 until present, 2023. For example, travel nursing pay rose dramatically during the pandemic and is declining dramatically as the pandemic wanes.
I recently had the pleasure of discussing the issue of healthcare pay with Zach Smith, RN, BSN. Zach is the VP of brand at Stability Healthcare, one of the nation’s leading healthcare staffing companies. Zach and I dove deep into the complexities of nursing pay and adjacent issues in the healthcare staffing industry. Zach’s expertise comes from his extensive nursing and business experience.
