The Society of Hospital Medicine (SHM) is a medical society comprised of hospitalists that exists to promote exceptional care for hospitalized patients.
The Hospital Medicine Workforce Experience Survey explores the perceptions of hospitalists on perceptions of their work environment. The Survey and Report play an important role in connecting SHM with our members. The Report elevates issues that are important to hospitalists across the country and helps us all improve the sustainability of the workforce.
The Report is available exclusively to SHM members. Not a member? Join today.
The 2026 Hospital Medicine Workforce Experience Report will be published later this summer and will examine issues such as well-being and burnout, workload and autonomy, workplace violence, leadership support, and more.
