Great Place to Work Certified 2025-2026 badge

Fostering a workplace environment rooted in opportunity and employee satisfaction has long been a priority for Memorial Healthcare System. This is the third consecutive year Memorial has received this coveted national recognition, certifying that its workforce values its efforts.

Based in Hollywood, FL, the healthcare system, which employs almost 17,500 caregivers, was honored by Great Place To Work®, a global leader on employee experience, leadership behaviors, and workplace culture. This award was based on feedback from a random sample of current employees about their experiences at Memorial and an independent analysis of the company's culture, which concluded:

In the recent employee sample, 8 out of 10 employees said that Memorial is a great place to work. Additionally, 88% reported feeling proud to tell others they work for Memorial. The results also showed that 90% felt welcomed when they joined the organization, and an impressive 93% said they feel good about the way Memorial contributes to the community.

“Caring for our patients, their families, and the community starts with supporting those who make it possible, our caregivers. That’s why we’re focused on continually improving their experience, environment, and career paths,” said Margie Vargas, SVP, chief human resources officer at Memorial Healthcare System.

This certification follows on the back of a recent Press Ganey survey completed by almost 14,500 staff, which saw Memorial pass national benchmarks in employee engagement.

“At Memorial, a people-first culture for both patients and team members is key to our success. By fostering a supportive and standout workplace, we attract top talent and remain competitive, allowing us to provide leading care to the community we serve,” said Shane Strum, Interim CEO of Memorial Healthcare System.

Great Place To Work® certification celebrates organizations that excel in fostering outstanding employee experiences, aiding job seekers in identifying companies with exceptional company culture. This prestigious recognition not only distinguishes these employers but also provides them with a significant edge in recruitment through globally recognized and research-backed validation of their commitment to fostering a positive workplace environment.
