Why Turnover Costs So Much
The true cost of caregiver turnover goes far beyond just posting a job. When a caregiver leaves, agencies face:
- Recruiting expenses — job postings, sourcing, screening applicants
- Training investment — orientation, skills training, shadowing
- Lost productivity — new hires take 2-3 months to reach full productivity
- Administrative burden — paperwork, credentialing, background checks
- Client disruption — care continuity suffers with frequent caregiver changes
