Your People Don't Quit Jobs They Quit Burnout

The reality facing healthcare employers today is stark: burnout doesn't happen overnight. It shows up first as disengagement, then as performance dips, and finally as attrition. The biggest risk is the silent quitting that happens long before the resignation letter arrives.

Burnout

Overwhelming workload and emotional exhaustion lead to diminished motivation and energy

Disengagement

Reduced commitment results in declining performance and withdrawal from team collaboration

Churn

Turnover damages patient experience, strains manager capacity, and drives up recruitment costs

"For clinical teams, churn amplifies scheduling gaps and constrains patient access. Leaders are spending precious time backfilling positions instead of investing in team development and strategic initiatives."

Attrition Isn't Just Inconvenient — It's Devastatingly Expensive

Retention represents the highest ROI lever available to healthcare organizations, yet many leaders don't fully grasp the true cost of turnover.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do existing retention programs fail?

Most programs address symptoms, not root causes. Generic wellness programs and internal training don't solve the core issue: lack of career progression and purpose. Employees need credible, external, healthcare-specific mentors who understand current industry dynamics—not just your organization's internal perspective.

How does pricing work?

We offer flexible pricing models: Per Employee Per Month (PEPM) for ongoing benefits, cohort-based pricing for targeted pilots, and role-based tiers for specialized support like nursing leadership or new manager coaching. Pricing is tailored to your specific needs and retention goals.

How quickly can we launch a pilot?

Most pilots launch within 2-4 weeks. Week 1-2 focuses on cohort selection and baseline data. Week 3-4 covers coach matching and program launch. Weeks 5-10 deliver active coaching, and weeks 11-12 provide results analysis and expansion planning.

What makes MatchDay different from internal career development?

Internal resources, while valuable, can't provide the unbiased career perspective that employees need when evaluating their future. MatchDay coaches provide honest feedback about marketability, realistic career options, and actionable development plans from an external, trusted perspective.

What outcomes can we expect?

Our partner organizations typically see measurable retention lift within one quarter. We track 90/180-day retention rates, internal mobility, manager effectiveness, engagement indicators, and at-risk employee resolution. You'll receive quarterly dashboards connecting coaching to retention outcomes.

What types of employees benefit most?

MatchDay works across your organization: new hires in high-churn roles, high performers at risk of leaving, employees in burnout hotspots, managers needing leadership development, and anyone navigating internal transitions or career crossroads.
