Becker Healthcare names HSHS one of top 150 places to work

Becker's Healthcare recently released the "150 Top Places to Work in Healthcare | 2022" list, which highlights hospitals, health systems and healthcare companies that promote diversity within the workforce, employee engagement and professional growth.

This year, Hospital Sisters Health System (HSHS) was among the esteemed honorees for going above and beyond to foster a great workplace culture, benefits and colleague satisfaction.

“Being part of HSHS provides benefits of a large system for educational and career development while also offering hometown-quality health care close to home,” said Kelly Sager, president and CEO of HSHS Holy Family Hospital. “For example, Holy Family Hospital recently opened up an education center within the hospital for students doing clinical rotations, which allows us to grow our local nurses who will be caring for our friends and neighbors in the community.”

“Working for HSHS means being part of a positive culture that focuses on the wellbeing of our patients, but also encourages the wellbeing of our physicians, providers and colleagues,” says Melinda Clark, president and chief executive officer of HSHS Medical Group and Prairie Cardiovascular, the Illinois physician groups of HSHS. “Our core values of Respect, Care, Competence and Joy influence every interaction within the HSHS family. Caring for one another empowers and energizes our colleagues as they care for patients.”

HSHS offers opportunities to build successful careers above and beyond the average healthcare provider or company; HSHS encourages professional development and promotes leadership from within. HSHS also offers unique wellness and personal benefits to ensure colleagues strike a positive work/life balance as well as colleague recognition programs to highlight their accomplishments.
