While ASCs continue to see increased surgical volumes year over year, they are still finding it difficult to staff their centers, according to a 2023 survey from ORManager.
In the last 12 months, 56% of ASCs reported an increase in volume; the same as the previous year. However, more than 68% of facilities also reported having a more difficult time recruiting experienced operating room nurses in the last 12 months.
Also, 69% percent of facilities reported more difficulty recruiting surgical technologists, according to the report.
