Supporting and Sustaining the Current and Future Workforce to Care for People with Serious Illness

There are significant challenges facing the workforce needed to provide high-quality care to increasing numbers of people living with serious illness. The National Academies Roundtable on Quality Care for People with Serious Illness hosted a hybrid public workshop in April 2023 to explore strategies and approaches to address major workforce challenges, such as health professional well-being; workforce shortages; workforce training and retention; as well as how to advance the diversity, equity, and inclusion of the workforce caring for people of all ages and all stages of serious illness. This workshop builds on the 2019 Roundtable workshop Building the Workforce We Need to Care for People with Serious Illness.
