The Burden on Health and Human Services Professionals
Paperwork eats into your time and morale.
- Documentation overload is a leading cause of burnout and turnover.
- Mandates, audits, and referrals swallow the time you want to spend helping people.
- Staff are leaving, and paperwork is largely to blame.
There’s a better way to work.
Health and human services turnover rates are as high as 60% in child welfare alone. The ideal industry average? 12%.
