Health Workforce Solutions LLC Introduces Comprehensive Workforce Resource Database

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Recognizing the lack of a single comprehensive national resource on the health care workforce, Health Workforce Solutions LLC (HWS) has developed a database of over 500 Internet-based workforce resources that will continue to expand over time. This easy-to-navigate resource database can be accessed at www.healthws.net.

Featuring up-to-the-minute health workforce news headlines from the American Hospital Association, a detailed listing of upcoming workforce conferences, and an intuitive, easy-to-use search taxonomy, this resource consolidates a wealth of disparate health workforce information in one place.

"Our ambition with this resource is to provide the ultimate portal for individuals seeking information on health workforce issues, trends, research and data," said David Cherner, Managing Partner of HWS. "We want this resource warehouse to become the first and most effective tool that individuals turn to when they have workforce-related questions and data needs."
