Workplace Culture

What makes John C. Lincoln an award-winning center for health care and community service? Our people. We invite you to get to know us better and discover what sets our culture apart.

A Culture of Excellence


"John C. Lincoln is the best place to work in the Valley. The hospital leadership respects us, they listen to our ideas and they always make patient care a priority."

— Karen Stocker, RN
   Deer Valley Hospital
   Critical Care

Whether directly involved in patient care or not, our employees are all committed to providing the best quality of care to patients who entrust their care to us. To enable us to carry out this commitment to our patients, the organization is in turn committed to the right clinical resources, cutting-edge technology and continuous innovation.

We listen to our employees and welcome new ideas and diverse approaches. For example, a team of nurses recently collaborated with an architectural firm to design a patient- and family-focused Emergency Department and Level I Trauma Center at John C. Lincoln North Mountain Hospital.

A Culture of Growth

Our goal is to create a workplace that attracts and keeps the best employees. Working here you'll experience a wealth of opportunities for personal and professional development, including education, specialty training and access to a variety of career tracks.

Our nursing college programs and partnerships with local schools both address the nursing shortage and promote advanced nursing degrees among our own employees.

A Culture of Care

Mutual respect and care are the underpinnings of our culture. They create a work environment where everyone feels valued and appreciated, where employees look forward to going to work every day.

Lincoln GIVES

This charitable program is just one way to show we care about our co-workers and the community at large. Our employees generously contribute to the program, and an elected committee of employees decides how the funds should be spent.

In addition to funding a variety of good causes — from community theater to health education — this program provides emergency assistance to our fellow co-workers in need.

Employee Satisfaction

Our key satisfaction ratings top 96% of nation's hospitals

We could keep talking about all the things that make John C. a great place to work, but thought you'd prefer to get some facts. We recently asked employee opinion specialists Morehead Associates to determine how John C. compares to the nation's leading hospitals in employee satisfaction.

We had no idea that the results would be phenomenal. It turns out that we rank well above the national average in every area — overall job satisfaction, benefits, organizational leadership and ongoing training, to name a few.
