Craig Kent, MD, CEO of UVA Health, and Charles Bodden, Senior Director for Talent Acquisition and Retention, recently sat down for an engaging interview with Lisa Badeau, Chief Marketing and Communications Officer.

"We're going to do everything we possibly can to make it more conducive to be part of UVA Health, bring more people in to help those incredible workers that are already here doing their best to care for patients," Dr. Kent says in the video. "I would say it is our top priority right now to improve staffing to help the patients that want to come to UVA Health."
