Loma Linda University (LLU) Behavioral Medicine Center (BMC) has been named a top workplace in health care according to Modern Healthcare.

The BMC was honored at the 2017 Best Places to Work Awards Dinner on Thursday, September 28, 2017 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The recognition program, now in its 10th year, honors workplaces throughout the health care industry that empower employees to provide patients and customers with the best possible care, products and services.

Kerry Heinrich, JD, CEO, LLU Medical Center, is incredibly grateful for the recognition from Modern Health Care.

“Our commitment to whole person care at Loma Linda University Health applies not only to our patients, but to our employees as well,” Heinrich said. “The Behavioral Medicine Center team serves with dedication and compassion as they support patients facing critical moments in their lives. This survey reveals our employees value their respectful, team-focused workplace. We are grateful that Modern Health Care has identified our team for this singular honor.”

Vice president/administrator of the Behavioral Medicine Center, Edward Field, MBA, said it’s truly an honor to receive the award from Modern Health Care.

“This validates the hard work of our leadership team to engage our staff,” he said. “It truly shows how much we value them by creating an environment where they can learn, grow and thrive.”  

Modern Healthcare partners with the Best Companies Group on the assessment process, which includes an extensive employee survey completed by a random selection of the nearly 350 employees at the BMC.
