Pennsylvania Hospital System Mitigates Worker Shortage With Bonuses, Vaccine Deferrals
Pennsylvania | October 20, 2021
As a worker shortage plagues most businesses, St. Luke’s University Health Network is using several strategies to mitigate employee loss, including how it administers the federal vaccine mandate, and large sign-on bonuses for new workers.
St. Luke’s operates 12 hospitals and more than 300 outpatient locations in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The health system recently issued a press release announcing that it has achieved its vaccine mandate goal.
Natural immunity and health impacts have been considered at St. Luke’s University Health Network as it navigates President Joe Biden’s employee vaccine mandate requiring vaccination or termination.
While some companies are only now announcing vaccine policies, St. Luke’s announced a vaccine mandate on Aug. 9, requiring that all employees without exemptions or deferrals be vaccinated by Sept. 25.

Pennsylvania | October 8, 2021
‘I’m waiting to hear how we make all of this happen at no cost,’ Rep. Susan Wild said
Rep. Susan Wild, D-Penn., on Tuesday night said she was “disappointed” in the Biden administration for the lack of results in handling the crisis on the U.S.-Mexico border. “I will be very honest with you and tell you I am a little bit disappointed. I know that the President assigned responsibility for the border crisis to the Vice President,” Wild said during a telephone town hall. “I’m a little bit disappointed I haven’t seen much in the way of results.”
During the town hall, Wild also hit Biden for repeating the talking point about his “Build Back Better” agenda costing “nothing,” saying it’s “hard for people to believe that” when he doesn’t follow up with any details about how the $3.5 trillion bill will be paid for. “I’m waiting to hear how we make all of this happen at no cost,” Wild added. This isn’t the first time that Wild has been critical of Biden. In late August, Wild released a statement attacking the Biden Administration on the evacuation in Afghanistan, saying the “evacuation process has been egregiously mishandled.”… (Excerpts from Fox News)

Pennsylvania | October 1, 2021
While Pennsylvania nursing homes and long-term care facilities already face major staffing challenges, the federal vaccine mandate and a new state-proposed minimum staffing requirement could devastate the industry.

Around 35 percent of Pennsylvania’s nursing home workforce is unvaccinated. That amounts to roughly 33,000 workers who would lose their jobs if they don’t get the shots, Zach Shamberg, CEO of the Pennsylvania Health Care Association told The Epoch Times in a phone interview. That only counts nursing home workers. Add thousands of more workers at assisted living communities, personal care homes, hospitals, and doctor’s offices…. (Excerpts from the Epoch times)
