The VA’s national recruitment effort is a direct response to the negative media that the VA has received over the course of this year. New VA Secretary Robert McDonald is intent on improving the VA’s image by improving the quality of care that the VA provides. The quality of care that Veterans receive can be measured by the timeliness of treatment and the knowledge of the staff.
By hiring a large number of new medical professionals, the VA intends to employ a knowledgeable, enthusiastic staff that will provide timely and accurate care for Veterans.
The exact steps that the VA is taking to expand capacity at their facilities include:
These actions build on recruitment policies already in place, including partnerships between local facilities and academic institutions, loan repayment programs, and scholarship programs.
“In order to recruit and retain the highest quality medical professionals, VA needs to be competitive with other healthcare systems, and ultimately that is how we provide the best care to our Veteran patients,” said Interim Under Secretary for Health Carolyn M. Clancy.
