“It has been an especially trying year for the world, and healthcare in particular as COVID-19 ravages our communities and your workplaces,” said Aurora Aguilar, Modern Healthcare’s editor. “But the organizations recognized on this year’s list rose to the top and continued to be a source of strength for their teammates. They have seen their colleagues fall ill to the virus and struggled with the economic impact of the pandemic. The loyalty and trust between employers and their workers is being put to the test now more than ever. We congratulate the Best Places to Work in Healthcare for continuing to serve their workforce and communities during such an unprecedented time.”

This award program identifies and recognizes outstanding employers in the healthcare industry nationwide. Modern Healthcare partners with the Best Companies Group on the assessment process, which includes an extensive employee survey.

“UMH was recently recognized by Modern Healthcare as one of the 100 best places to work in the nation. This recognition is a testament to the entire UMH team. This year, COVID-19 highlighted the importance of having a well-established, committed, adaptive, innovative, and unified team. This pandemic experience proved a strong reminder that every person, every skill, and every department is a must; it truly does take a team to realize success. I am proud to work at UMH alongside every member of our team,” said CEO Tom Nordwick.

“To receive this recognition for the fourth year in a row is truly a testament to our team’s dedication. We are so thankful for the community’s continued support, especially during the pandemic. We are honored to serve the community,” Nordwick added.
