While coronavirus certainly put extra strain on these systems as well — between the "Great Resignation", unprecedented rates of burnout, and more — healthcare organizations have been struggling to attract and retain the talent that they need to provide quality patient care and improve patient outcomes, including in pediatrics. In fact, nationally, around 80% of [pediatric hospital beds](https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/28/health/staff-shortages-childrens-hospitals) were occupied as of late October 2022. Children's National Hospital in Washington, D.C. [says](https://www.cnn.com/2022/10/28/health/staff-shortages-childrens-hospitals) that “this surge in illness is exacerbated by the national healthcare workforce shortages . . . families who come to us with non-urgent issues will experience long waits to be seen.” Healthcare Workforce Logistics (HWL) has helped hundreds of organizations navigate such staffing challenges and now offers rapid response staffing solutions for pediatric and pediatric sub-specialty organizations.  Here we'll go over how it works, what it means, and how you can get started.   ## **Rapid Staffing Solutions For Pediatrics: How it Works** By providing fixed rates that are backed by market data, HWL provides a platform that works with pediatrics organizations to provide top talent while keeping costs low.
