The Need
According to data published by the AAMC (Association of American Medical Colleges), the United States could see an estimated shortage of up to 124,000 physicians by 2034, and possibly 25% of registered nurses leaving their jobs in both primary and specialty care. This shortage is more acutely felt in community health centers. In fact, HRSA (Health Resources & Services Administration) has designated Valley Community Healthcare (VCH) as a Health Professional Shortage Area.
The Solution: Teach and Train our Own Workforce!
Under the direction of Dr. Roger Peeks, VCH has partnered with Kaiser Permanente, universities, and other local programs for over three years to teach and train health care professionals who will continue their careers within community health or in working with under-served populations. These partnerships are the solution to the dire workforce shortage that we are currently experiencing and anticipate will continue for many years to come.
Over the next 5 years beginning in 2022, VCH plans to proctor, teach and train at least 65 health care professionals including physicians, nurse practitioners and registered nurses. Once licensed, the potential patients seen is approximately 90,000 by professionals who continue their careers in community health. VCH’s teaching and training program can be duplicated at other community clinics.
The professional health care workforce shortage is becoming perilous. Those that need the most care will be the most at risk. Teaching and training at every level is the solution. Our future is our workforce
