Healthleaders

Preliminary federal data from June 2024 shows healthcare job creation lagging behind other sectors, furthering the ongoing labor shortage across the industry. A recent article from Healthleaders reports that healthcare grew 49,000 jobs in June, down from the average of 64,000 jobs over the past year, with the majority of these healthcare jobs (22,000) coming from hospitals and ambulatory healthcare services.

Among broader data reported about the US economy and job market, these figures represent the continued difficulty the healthcare industry faces in both new job creation and existing staff retention.
