“By 2025, healthcare organizations will face a perfect storm of challenges – rising demand, shrinking workforces and rapid technological change. The question isn’t if we’ll adapt, but how we’ll ensure our teams are ready.” These words from OpusVi CEO Andrew Malley, featured in his latest article for BenefitsPRO, highlight the critical need for forward-thinking strategies in healthcare as we approach the new year. Meeting these challenges isn’t just about adapting – it’s about creating opportunities to build smarter, more agile and better-supported healthcare teams through workforce development solutions driven by data, expanded virtual care and competency-based training programs. Explore Andrew’s insights and predictions for 2025 in the full article.

At the end of 2023, we made predictions about key trends we believed would shape the healthcare industry in 2024. Now, as 2025 approaches, we’re revisiting these insights to explore how our predictions played out and what trends will remain pivotal in the year ahead. Here’s what we expect to continue to see in the year ahead: - Building the foundation of the healthcare workforce: With a significant shortage in foundational roles, such as CNAs, MAs and PCAs, many healthcare organizations will need to focus on building their talent pipeline and hiring workers earlier in their careers. - Utilizing data analytics to support new nurses: Leveraging tools, like our Impact Dashboard, will allow leaders to gain real-time insights into nurse career journeys, leading to reduced #turnover and improved #patientsafety. - Rethinking healthcare workforce education: Apprenticeship-style education and standardized training will address today’s immediate shortages while building a resilient, highly competent workforce prepared for the future.
