“We all want to work somewhere we feel valued. Our newest research celebrates the companies making that a reality. When businesses put their people first, everyone wins — employees are happier, productivity goes up, and the company thrives. These rankings shine a light on the workplaces truly getting it right for their teams,” said Jennifer H. Cunningham, Editor-in-Chief of Newsweek.
Prime Healthcare’s 2026 recognitions include America’s Greatest Workplaces, America’s Greatest Workplaces in Health Care, America’s Greatest Workplaces for Women, America’s Greatest Workplaces for Culture, Belonging & Community, America’s Greatest Workplaces for Mental Well-Being, and America’s Greatest Workplaces by State.
The recognitions are based on extensive employee feedback, independent research, publicly available data, and an analysis of key workplace factors. The rankings highlight organizations that excel in employee well-being, leadership, compensation, workplace culture, career development, and work-life balance.
“These recognitions are especially meaningful because they reflect the experiences of our employees and the culture our teams help build every day,” said Sunny Bhatia, MD, President and Chief Medical Officer of Prime Healthcare. “At Prime Healthcare, our physicians, nurses, caregivers, leaders, and support teams are united by a shared commitment to delivering high-quality, compassionate care. Supporting our teams is essential to supporting our patients, strengthening our hospitals, and serving communities that depend on us.”
Prime Healthcare believes investing in people directly strengthens patient care, quality, safety, and access. Across the organization, more than 60,000 employees and affiliated physicians serve patients and families with skill, compassion, and purpose, advancing Prime’s commitment to saving and improving hospitals so they can continue delivering compassionate, quality care to patients and better healthcare for communities.
The Newsweek workplace honors come during a year of continued growth and national recognition for Prime Healthcare. In 2026, Prime hospitals received more than 150 Healthgrades achievements for clinical excellence, seven hospitals were named to Becker’s Healthcare’s “100 Great Community Hospitals” list, and hospitals across the system earned national recognition from The Leapfrog Group for patient safety and quality. Prime Healthcare also continued to expand access to care through investments in technology, clinical programs, facility improvements, and community hospitals nationwide.
Prime Healthcare’s recognition across multiple Newsweek workplace categories reflects the organization’s continued focus on creating an environment where employees can grow, lead, and make a meaningful difference. From bedside care to hospital leadership to shared services and support roles, Prime team members are united by a mission of service and a commitment to bringing healing, dignity, and hope to patients and communities across the country.
