Peter Season 5 Episode 11

High Reliability, The Healthcare FM Podcast is brought to you by Cref. Our show discusses the issues, challenges, and opportunities within the Healthcare Facilities Management (FM) function.

In a show that is repurposed from our Healthcare Facilities Network, we discuss a pressing issue facing hospitals nationwide: the ability to attract and retain skilled healthcare facilities management professionals. Our guest, David Emery, Facility Manager at Utah Valley Hospital, Provo, UT, is tackling this challenge head-on. Through innovative facility staffing models, he's offering insights on maintaining talent beyond competitive salaries. 

Apart from the personal satisfaction you gain from working in healthcare and making a difference in a patient's life, what strategies can give you an edge in talent retention? In this episode, David delves into scheduling and employee development tactics he uses at his facility.
