Adventist Health Tillamook Recognized as Top Healthcare Employer

Adventist Health Tillamook was recognized in April 2024 by Becker’s Hospital Review as one of 27 critical access hospitals to know in 2024 and one of the top 150 healthcare systems to work for in healthcare.

“We are deeply honored by this recognition highlighting our commitment to providing exceptional healthcare,” said Eric Swanson, Adventist Health Tillamook president. “This recognition comes from our dedicated team’s hard work and the innovative approaches we employ to deliver quality care, enhance community well-being and fulfill our mission of living God’s love by inspiring health, wholeness and hope.”

Critical access hospitals are vital components of the overall healthcare delivery system, providing quality care to the residents and visitors of rural areas. These small but mighty organizations work to expand access to specialty care, cut down on patient travel times and improve community health. As part of the recognition selection process, Becker’s Hospital Review examined rankings and awards from several respected organizations, including Healthgrades, National Rural Health Association and Chartis Center for Rural Health.

Adventist Health Tillamook is the only critical access hospital in Oregon to be highlighted by Becker’s in 2024. This recognition underscores the crucial role of the hospital in providing high-quality medical care and fostering a supportive and fulfilling work environment for employees and providers.
