Forbes Recognizes Adventist Health Among Oregon’s Best Employers

By Kim Strobel, January 24, 2025

Adventist Health has been recognized by Forbes as one of Oregon’s top large employers, ranking fourth overall and leading as the top healthcare organization in the state.

“We strive to create an environment where every associate feels supported and valued,” said Eric Swanson, Adventist Health Tillamook president. “This honor reflects our team’s dedication to inspiring health, wholeness and hope, and I’m incredibly proud of how they bring this mission to life each day.”

To assess employers, Forbes uses surveys conducted by a market research firm to ask employees in Oregon to rate their current employers, recent past employers and organizations within their industry. Companies do not pay a fee to participate or be selected for a Forbes list.

Other recent achievements for Adventist Health in Oregon include:

• 2024 Top Workplace by The Oregonian (Adventist Health Portland)

• Finalist in the 2024 Ragan Workplace Wellness Awards (Adventist Health Tillamook)

• Worksite approval from Blue Zones, an organization certifying worksites and communities for making well-being accessible to all (Adventist Health Tillamook)

“At Adventist Health, our associates and providers make all the difference,” said Kyle King, Adventist Health Portland and Oregon Service Area president. “Their commitment to providing compassionate care and supporting one another sets us apart. This recognition reflects their hard work and the value they provide our patients. We’re incredibly proud of our team for making Adventist Health one of the greatest places to work in Oregon.”
