The American Hospital Association is committed to raising the awareness of health care's worker shortage and deriving
solutions to this pervasive problem. Finding specialized staff to fill critical vacancies through their professional
societies is key. We welcome and encourage all health care associations to join this initiative.
Rich Umdenstock, President and CEO
American Hospital Association
The number of unfilled healthcare positions is staggering. We became involved as a founding partner of the
National Healthcare Career Network because we want to direct employers to associations, where the talent lies.
John H. Graham IV, CAE, President and CEO
ASAE & The Center for Association Leadership
Because associations offer extensive training, networking and certification programs, we believe candidates who are
affiliated with healthcare associations are better prepared. Nation-wide hospitals employ more than 5 million people;
we are committed to the National Healthcare Career Network because we want unmitigated access to the kind of talent
associations provide.
