Kendra Aucker, President and CEO of Evangelical Community Hospital

LEWISBURG, PA - Evangelical Community Hospital has been named to the Forbes America’s Best Employers list for 2024. This prestigious award is presented by Forbes and Statista Inc., the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider. The awards list was announced on February 13, 2024 and can currently be viewed on the Forbes website.

America’s Best Employers have been identified in an independent survey from a vast sample of over 170,000 U.S. employees working for companies employing at least 1,000 people within the U.S.

The final score is based on two types of evaluations:

• Personal - Given by employees themselves, also known as direct evaluations.
• Public - Given by friends and family members of employees, or members of the public who work in the same industry (also known as indirect evaluations), with a much higher weighting for personal evaluations.

The result is two sub-lists: one for “Mid” sized organizations (those with 1,000 to 5,000 employees) and “Large” sized organizations (those with more than 5,000 employees).

Evangelical Community Hospital is a non-profit organization that employs 1,900 individuals including more than 170 employed and non-employed physicians on staff. Based on size, the Hospital was named on the Best Mid-Sized Employer listing. The facility is licensed to accommodate 131 overnight patients in private rooms designed for healing, patient safety, and positive patient experience.

Based on the results of the study, Evangelical Community Hospital earned its spot on the Forbes list of America’s Best Employers 2024.

“As one of the larger employers in the Greater Susquehanna Valley, we take great pride in creating a work environment that not only provides for our employees financially, but also places an emphasis on their mental and physical well-being, in an environment that is welcoming, supportive, and inclusive of different ideas and beliefs,” said Kendra Aucker, President and CEO of Evangelical Community Hospital.
“This stamp of recognition affirms our belief that providing a favorable work environment makes it possible to recruit and retain the highest caliber of employees working every day to provide the best possible healthcare for our patients.”
