Providers proudly advertise their exceptional patient outcomes and unique approaches to treatment. At the same time, many top organizations are also realizing the importance of expressing their commitment to the employees who provide that care. With 1 million nurses and about a third of all doctors reaching retirement age in the next 15 years, it's never been more important for great employers to communicate the respect, personal support and advancement potential their organizations can offer.
Promote Your Workplace Culture and the Reputation that Comes With It
Winning a spot as one of Fortune’s 100 Best Companies to Work For in America is the creme de la creme of workplace recognition. Companies that have earned that kind of award should put it front and center on all content job seeker are likely to encounter. OhioHealth and WellStar Health, for example, put a badge identifying their 100 Best distinction prominently on their career sites. Of course, awards can only capture so much. Plenty of additional companies also boast exceptional employee sentiment worth sharing with potential hires. Hoag Memorial Hospital Presbyterian, for example, offers a wealth of information on what employees say about its workplace by providing job seekers a link to its Great Rated! review directly from the organization's career page. Even though their accolades may differ, Great Rated! companies all benefit from the way they demonstrate their commitment to transparency for job candidates.
Spread the Word
Put Job Ads in Context
It can be hard for even the best employers to stand out on crowded job websites or to humanize the workplace depicted in employment ads. One tool leveraged by providers like Baptist Health South Florida and St. Jude's Hospital is to customize the job notices that run alongside their Great Rated! reviews. This puts their jobs in front of people serious about researching a company's culture while giving interested job candidates an immediate idea of the open positions they might be suited to fill. Customizing this element of the review also gives organizations more control to prioritize their most critical positions.
Offer a Call to Action
At Miami Children’s Hospital, nearly nine in ten team members surveyed by Great Rated! feel they have the chance to engage in meaningful work. This feedback gathered by a trusted third party can prove a real incentive for professionals wanting to work alongside colleagues who value a strong sense of purpose in their jobs. In addition to the employee comments and survey scores, Miami Children's goes a step further with its Great Rated! review by adding an additional page of content. There, potential candidates can easily find a range of multi-media, jobs descriptions and other useful information directly from the hospital.
Whether it's through social media, customized job postings or accomplishments promoted on a company's career website, more health care organizations are realizing the importance of sharing what their workplaces offer online. As they do so, spreading the word about the best aspects of their culture can illustrate the value of their brands for job seekers and patients alike.
