(Medical-NewsWire.com, June 12, 2012 ) Philadephia, PA -- HealthExecNews.com has released its 2012 list of the 25 Best Hospitals to Work for in the U.S.
In developing the list, editors considered professional development opportunities, benefit packages, compensation, and employee satisfaction, among other factors.
Among the 25 hospitals taking top honors are the following:
- Bailey Medical Center - Owasso, OK
- Baptist Medical Center - Jacksonville, FL
- Lehigh Valley Hospital - Allentown, PA
- Scneck Medical Center - Seymour, IN
- Massachusetts General Hospital - Boston, MA
- Palo Alto Medical Foundation - Palo Alto, CA
- Sentara Norfolk General Hospital - Norfolk, VA
"In challenging economic times, it's refreshing to see hospitals placing such emphasis on employee values and interests," said Renée Cocchi, Editor of HealthExecNews.
Among the unique opportunities these employers offer are first-time homebuyers' assistance, continuing education courses, and programs for Veterans and other members of U.S. Armed Forces.
A few of the hospitals link employee perks to patient satisfaction. For example, Lehigh Valley Hospital pays a cash award to eligible employees when patient satisfaction and financial goals are reached.
Many of the facilities are recipients of regional or national recognition for being great places to work. For example, The Mayo Clinic has placed on Forbes' "Best 100 Companies to Work For," and Northwestern Memorial Hospital (Chicago, IL), has made Working Mother Magazine's "100 Best Companies for Working Mothers." Lexington Medical Center (West Columbia, SC) was voted one of the "Best Places to Work" by the South Carolina Chamber of Commerce.
This is HealthExecNews's first annual edition of this list. "25 Best Hospitals to Work for in the U.S." was sponsored by ClinicalKey.
