Hillcrest honored among Best Places to Work in Healthcare

Several Hillcrest facilities have been selected by Modern Healthcare as one of the 2025 Best Places to Work in Healthcare. Tulsa Spine & Specialty Hospital, Hillcrest Cushing, Hillcrest Henryetta, Hillcrest Pryor and Hillcrest South are appearing on this prestigious list for the seventh, sixth, fifth, second and first times, respectively. The complete list of this year’s winners, in alphabetical order, is available at ModernHealthcare.com/bestplaceslist. Modern Healthcare will publish a special supplement featuring a ranked list of all the winners along with the October 13, 2025, issue of MH magazine.

“Being recognized as a 2025 Best Place to Work in Healthcare is a powerful testament to how these organizations value their people,” said Dan Peres, President of Modern Healthcare. “In a time of constant change and challenge, this year’s winners have shown a deep commitment to creating environments where employees feel supported, heard and inspired to do their best work. That kind of culture doesn’t happen by accident it’s intentional, and it’s worth celebrating.”

“This recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects the voices of our team members – the people who make Hillcrest what it is,” said Kevin Gross, regional president of Hillcrest HealthCare System. “We’re proud of each of these facilities for being recognized, and it is especially exciting to see Hillcrest South earn this honor for the first time. These achievements underscore our continued commitment to building a culture of acceptance, belonging and support where our employees can thrive.”

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

The honored Hillcrest facilities will find out their ranking on the Best Places list and be celebrated at the 2025 Best Places to Work in Healthcare Awards Gala taking place Oct. 8 in Nashville, TN. Information about the gala is available at ModernHealthcare. com/BestPlacesGala.
