Senior Community Health Worker Fulltime

What makes the culture at Providence unique?
Transcript

The culture at Providence is unique because we do have a faith-based layer added on to healthcare, which just inspires a little more compassion and concern for the patient. I like that we start the day with prayer here. I like that we have a nod to our heritage with the brothers and sisters of the Catholic faith. I just feel like it gives us a foundation for why we’re in healthcare, why we do what we do, and reach out to those who are less fortunate. It just feels a little more wholesome and I like that.
