Beyond the direct financial losses, hospitals that cannot provide timely care during these FTE gaps may lose patients permanently.
"Leadership can be hesitant to bring in locums, thinking their remaining staff can handle the extra workload, but this can cause burnout and snowball effect of resignations. That's when the cost of not using locums leads to even greater financial strain down the road. It is essential to recognize when that tipping point has been reached."
