In the post-pandemic era, nursing workforce constraints continue to foster concerns for the future of health care among nurse leaders worldwide. Causal factors attributing to disparity between workforce supply and demand are well documented in literature while operational outcomes from comprehensive solutions are scarce. Nurse leaders seeking to meet the operational demands of a constrained workforce must embrace innovative care delivery models aimed to meet the generational needs of the workforce. Operational outcomes measured in fiscal year 2023, defined as July 1, 2022-June 30, 2023, include: a total savings of 30 million dollars in premium labor spend, an increase in the organization's fill rate to 86%, a 62% reduction in agency spend, 8% reduction in turnover, including a 9% reduction in first-year turnover, a 4% reduction in vacancy rate, and 20% less time spent on staffing and scheduling tasks.

Increasing evidence shows that the COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted certain populations, particularly those facing structural marginalization, such as immigrants and refugees. Additionally, research highlights that structurally marginalized populations living with chronic conditions, such as cancer and/or mental health and addiction (MH&A) disorders, are more vulnerable to the adverse effects of COVID-19. These individuals face higher susceptibility to infection and worse health outcomes, including increased rates of hospitalization, severe illness, and death.
