Rush-Copley Named One of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare

(September 24, 2009) – Rush-Copley has been named to Modern Healthcare’s annual list of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare.  Modern Healthcare conducted the program to recognize outstanding employers in the healthcare industry on a national level. 

The Best Places to Work in Healthcare program collected information from both the employer and employees and was open to all companies (providers, suppliers, payers, associations) 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 that resulted in an analysis in eight core areas: leadership and planning, culture and communications, role satisfaction, working environment, relationship with supervisor, training and development, pay and benefits and overall satisfaction.

“Rush-Copley is honored to be named to Modern Healthcare’s Best Places to Work in Healthcare,” said Barry C. Finn, president and CEO of Rush-Copley.  “This award demonstrates the medical center’s commitment to providing its employees with a friendly, engaging work environment and a strong, professional team of co-workers.”

Modern Healthcare will reveal the specific ranking of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare, from 1 to 100, in a special supplement to be published October 26, 2009.

Rush-Copley is one of the largest employers in the greater Fox Valley area with over 2,000 employees and nearly 500 physicians on staff.
