BERKELEY HEIGHTS, N.J., May 13, 2025 – Viventium, who offers an industry-leading payroll, HR, and compliance platform purpose-built for healthcare providers, today published The 2025 Healthcare Workforce Management Report. Based on insights from an independent survey of nearly 650 professionals across home-, facility-, and community-based care, the research uncovers the disconnect between care staff and administrator perception, the role of technology and trust, and the impact of burnout and retention, and outlines what it takes to build stronger, more resilient teams from within.

“Our research highlights the underlying workforce challenges threaded throughout the macro trends shaping the industry,” said Navin Gupta, CEO of Viventium. “We’re excited to share our findings as a roadmap to help healthcare providers navigate these trends by identifying key areas that impact operational resilience, retention, and compliance.”
