February 23, 2009 11:54 AM
Nursing Professionals magazine has announced its 2009 “Top 100 Hospitals to Work For,” and Hackensack University Medical Center (HUMC) came in at an impressive number 20 in the magazine’s January 15, 2009 issue.
Early in 2008, Nursing Professionals sent a survey out to 25,000 randomly selected hospital nurses throughout the country measuring their job satisfaction. Some of the sample questions were:
-
How well does your hospital manage personal training and development?
-
Is your hospital a family-friendly employer?
-
Does your hospital offer flexible working arrangements?
-
Does your hospital promote equality and diversity in your nursing workforce?
-
How strong is the nursing voice within your hospital on a scale of one-to-ten?
A total of five data research associates then compiled the return surveys to produce the list for 2009.
“I am delighted to learn that HUMC made the list of ‘Top 100 Hospitals to Work For,’” said Dianne A.M. Aroh, RN, executive vice president and chief nursing officer at HUMC. “Excellence in nursing practice is something that we strive for every day at HUMC. We collaborate with our nurses and constantly seek innovative ways to meet the needs of our patients and their families.”
