Modern Healthcare Magazine Rates St. Francis Hospital One of the Best Places to Work in the U.S. for the Second Year in a Row
Roslyn, New York – St. Francis Hospital, The Heart Center® has been recognized as one of the nation’s best places to work in healthcare by Modern Healthcare, the leading industry magazine. It is the second consecutive year that the hospital made the select list, and again it was the only hospital in New York State to be recognized.
The magazine will reveal the ranked order of the elite group of 100 organizations on its website on October 19 and in a special supplement to be published on October 25. Winners will be recognized by industry segment (provider, payer and vendor) as well as the number of employees. Modern Healthcare will also host a half-day conference and award gala in Dallas, Texas on October 18.
“To receive this national recognition for the second year in a row is a tribute to our highly dedicated physicians, nurses and staff who work hard to create an environment that emphasizes teamwork, professionalism and respect,” said Alan D. Guerci, M.D., President and CEO. “It is also gratifying because providing high quality medical care depends on our ability to attract and retain the best healthcare professionals in our region.”
Modern Healthcare partnered with Best Companies Group, a PA-based firm that administers “best places to work” programs nationwide. According to the magazine, “from economic development to employee retention, being named one of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare benefits individuals, organizations and the healthcare industry.”
The program collected information from both employers and employees and was open to companies with at least 25 employees. Employers completed a survey detailing company policies, practices, benefits and demographics. Employees were asked an in-depth set of questions in 8 core areas including culture and communications, working environment, training and development, pay and benefits, and overall satisfaction.
