PeaceHealth provides caregivers support and resources through a holistic benefits package, which offers a unique in-house mental health support program alongside an integrated Employee Assistance Program. These benefits are designed to support mental, spiritual, physical, legal and financial well-being. PeaceHealth also offers caregivers childcare access assistance as well as emergency funds when experiencing times of crisis or emergency.
Overall, PeaceHealth ranked No. 34 in the nation and was one of just 10 health systems in the region to receive the national designation. It’s the sixth year in a row PeaceHealth has made the national list and the fifth year in a row receiving top ranking in Washington. The recognition follows PeaceHealth’s No. 1 ranking in the Portland Business Journal’s list of Healthiest Employers of Oregon in June.
