In a recent report by the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, over 10,000 healthcare workers departed aged care facilities between July and September 2023, including 2,308 registered nurses, 854 enrolled nurses, 6,556 personal care staff, and 355 service managers. This turnover underscores the challenges of maintaining continuity and quality of care, increasing workload and stress for remaining staff, and meeting regulatory standards. To address these issues, healthcare organizations can focus on effective retention strategies: 1. Hire the right people in the first place: According to a report by the Australian Human Resources Institute, the average cost per hire for companies in Australia is $26,000, emphasizing the importance of identifying candidates who align with the organization’s culture and are likely to stay long-term. 2. Onboard your people with purpose: Structured onboarding programs are crucial to reducing early turnover. These programs should simplify administrative tasks and ensure thorough training on systems and procedures, critical in the highly regulated healthcare environment. 3. Offer scheduling flexibility: Providing flexible work arrangements can help prevent burnout and retain staff. 4. Build a more engaged workforce: Foster employee engagement through personalized career development, regular feedback mechanisms, and access to mental health support. 5. Stay current on compensation: Competitive compensation plans, including bonuses, tuition reimbursements, and benefits like childcare subsidies, help attract and retain healthcare professionals amidst rising industry costs and competitive pressures. Addressing these aspects holistically can strengthen workforce retention efforts and enhance the overall quality of care in aged care facilities.

Recognising the pressing need to support the mental wellbeing of aged care nurses, Altaira, through our partnership with Healthcare Heartbeat, have provided support for new nurses participating in the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (SA Branch) Aged Care Transition Professional Program, which launched during April 2024. This initiative equipped nearly three dozen Nurses entering the aged care workforce with the tools and strategies necessary to safeguard their mental health amidst the challenges of their profession. This weekend's International Nurses Day theme ‘Our Nurses. Our Future. The economic power of care’  aims to reshape perceptions, demonstrating how strategic investment in nursing can bring considerable economic and societal benefits. Investing in the mental health of aged care nurses, businesses, and individuals alike can contribute to a healthier, more resilient workforce and ultimately, enhance the quality of care provided to our aging population. Something that Altaira are always at the forefront of. Our healthcare workers commit wholeheartedly to the welfare of others, often at the detriment of their health and family's wellbeing. Together, through collaborative efforts, we can create a healthier, more sustainable future for aged care nurses and the residents they serve.
