With patient census figures breaking all previous records and new medical services being introduced at a brisk rate, Anne Arundel Medical Center is seeking more nurses. In collaboration with our Human Resources Department, we have developed a strategic plan to hire and retain registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, patient care technicians and other staff who support patient care activities. In addition, starting salaries for nurses were increased as were the hourly wages offered to new employees. AAMC's website is fertile ground for nurse recruitment efforts.

Philip Rink, Jr., AAMC's webmaster, says that the response to the nurse recruitment site has been surprising. The prospective employee can spend a minimum of four hours observing and interacting with a nurse in the specialty of his or her choice. As an outgrowth of Shadow Day, AAMC introduced the Friends and Family Program to bring new nurses into the AAMC family, recruited by AAMC's current workforce. For those who decide to join the staff, the benefits are many. First, being associated with Maryland's fastest growing healthcare system is a positive experience.
