The Best Workplaces in Health Care award is based on analysis of survey responses from over 161,000 current employees from Great Place to Work^®certified companies.

"The feedback delivered in these surveys is critical to moving IEHP forward and continuing to uphold our mission to heal and inspire the human spirit," said IEHP Chief Executive Officer Jarrod McNaughton. "Our team members inspire the work we do every day and their innovative feedback has driven many of the initiatives we've implemented."

The Best Workplaces in Health Care list is highly competitive. Great Place to Work, the global authority on workplace culture, selected the list using rigorous analytics and confidential employee feedback. Companies were only considered if they are a Great Place to Work-Certified™ organization.

When asked if there was anything unusual or unique about IEHP that makes it a great place to work, team members responded with personal insights, highlighting the organization's positive impact.

"IEHP is unique in that they 'walk their talk.' In the 20 years of experience as a nurse, I have never been employed by an organization such as IEHP," shared an IEHP team member in the anonymous survey. "They truly care for our community just as much as they care for their employees. It is a blessing to be part of such an amazing organization that exudes its mission, vision and values.
