Banner Health is a non-profit health care company, operating in 23 states. Its facilities provide a number of different types of care. Banner is based in Phoenix, and Arizona is home to a large portion of the company's operations. Over the course of the next decade, the baby boom generation will continue to enter its senior years something that will challenge the health care industry nationwide.

The company has also sought to fill beds by establishing a partnership with Kaiser Permanente (Armbriter, 2012). Banner has also entered into a multi-year strategic partnership with Cerner that will help it to innovate more, lower costs and better position itself to meet market needs for years to come (Monegain, 2015).

The company has worked with various agencies and levels of government proactively to try to enhance workforces in states where the shortages are most acute (Banner Health, 2012). The good news for Banner is that for the states in which it operates, only California is thought to have an acute nursing shortage (Tuten, 2012).
Overall Banner Health appears to be ready for the next ten years. There may still...
