Michaels' report spotlights how creative collaborations with real estate developers can offer attainable workforce housing solutions to healthcare systems that boost recruitment and retention, while reducing overall operational costs.

CAMDEN, NEW JERSEY / ACCESS Newswire / February 17, 2026 / The Michaels Organization, a national leader in residential real estate that has been pioneering solutions to the nation's housing challenges for more than 50 years, has released its latest White Paper, examining how innovative partnerships can help alleviate the lack of affordable workforce housing impacting healthcare systems across the country.

The white paper is available for download from Becker's Healthcare, a leading media platform for healthcare decision-makers, and can also be requested through Michaels' website.

"Attainable housing, sometimes called Workforce or Middle Market Housing, refers to housing that is affordable to people earning between 80 and 120 percent of an Area's Median Income," explains Milton Pratt, Jr., Michaels' Executive Vice President. "Lack of attainable housing for their workforce strains healthcare systems' recruitment and retention efforts as well as their overall operational costs."

The white paper presents insights into how leading healthcare systems across the country are engaging with private sector developers, like Michaels, to pursue innovative solutions to their unique housing challenges.

These collaborations leverage the distinct strengths and resources of each partner to address housing needs while supporting workforce stability.

"Tapping the expertise of a developer that can provide turnkey solutions from conception to completion allows healthcare professionals to concentrate on healthcare, while the developer delivers the housing," said Pratt.
