If current trends persist, these shortages will increase across Virginia. The authors of this report identify interventions that can help the Virginia Health Workforce Development Authority (VHWDA) address these health care workforce shortages. To accomplish this goal, they applied an analytic framework to existing or potential interventions for retaining, recruiting, and improving the structural efficiency of the nursing, primary care, and behavioral health workforces in Virginia. In this report, they highlight which interventions VHWDA should prioritize based on its desired outcomes and policy goals. ER -
