Care Staff Recruitment and Retention Webinar:
Recruitment and Retention is the biggest challenge facing Health and Social Care Providers in the UK.
88% of Homecare Providers and 87% of Care Home providers report that they are experiencing recruitment challenges.
Recruitment and Retention A Values Led Approach Webinar is designed for Owners, Registered Managers and HR professionals in health and social care to help embed the principles of a Values Led Approach into their Recruitment and Retention processes. This approach helps attract and recruit prospective employees whose personal values and behaviours align with those of your organisation.
Values-based recruitment is a way of getting to know people, their motivations, passions, interests and whether they’ll be a good fit for your organisation and for the roles you’re recruiting to, so you can make the best possible recruitment choices for those who you provide care and support for.
Values-based recruitment gives you the ability to look wider than the usual pool of recruits to find people who may not have any previous experience in care but who have exactly the sorts of values and behaviours that would make them an asset to your health and social care organisation.
Part of W&P’s highly rated webinar series
The webinar teaches learners how adopting a values-based approach helps establish strong workplace values ensuring that your workforce matches them. During the webinar we focus on your values and how to embed these into your recruitment and retention practices to reduce time and wasted resources in recruiting the wrong people with the wrong behaviours and values – remember “no hands are better than the wrong hands”.
The risk of recruiting ‘just anyone’ who then doesn’t have the values you uphold in care, can cause more problems than it solves such as:
- Lack of good quality care
- Risk of safeguarding
- Managing Complaints
- Time spent performance managing the staff member.
- Risk of regulatory intervention or local authority contract penalties
- Reputational Issues
