The Crisis

Kentucky faces a severe healthcare workforce shortage. Rural facilities operate understaffed, and entire communities lack essential care—a crisis demanding immediate action.

​

Our Solution

HealthForce Kentucky is a transformative partnership between healthcare institutions, nine colleges and universities, and P-12 districts across 16 counties, revolutionizing how Kentucky prepares healthcare professionals.

​

Proven Impact

With a historic $38 million state investment, we've launched two mobile simulation labs—HealthForce 1 and HealthForce 2—delivering world-class training directly to underserved communities while creating career pathways that keep talent in Kentucky.

​

The Next Evolution

Our groundbreaking Innovation Center opens in Spring 2026 as a cutting-edge hub for immersive healthcare education, representing the most advanced simulation facility of its kind.

​

The Critical Moment

State funding concludes in December 2026. Without immediate support for operational funding, this unprecedented facility risks underutilization during its crucial first year when establishing best practices and proving impact are essential for long-term sustainability.

​

Your Partnership Opportunity

Join us in ensuring HealthForce Kentucky not only survives but thrives. Your investment will activate a facility designed to train over 500 healthcare professionals annually, creating a lasting impact across Kentucky's most vulnerable communities.

The health of tomorrow depends on the action we take today.
