According to the US Department of Labor, company costs for replacing an employee equal one-third of a new hire's annual salary. Normal turnover costs' effect on a home care agency's bottom line is currently compounded by the fact that beyond the media hype, the nursing shortage is very real. Home Health Services of Dallas has a successful strategy for staff retention that has assisted in retaining many of the home health aides and other staff since the agency opened in 1974.
