HUMAN RESOURCES
From the very beginning, in the early 1940s, YRMC has consistently hired the best, most talented people available. As we have grown and new programs and technology have been added, the number of employees has substantially increased. And we’re proud to say that each and every YRMC employee shares a commitment to quality patient care.
HIRING THE BEST STAFF
At YRMC, employee recognition and retention are top priorities. We continually seek out and hire the most highly qualified employees, while working very hard to keep the quality employees already on staff. We do this by:- Offering employees at all levels a wide range of benefits and opportunities, because we realize that appreciation and education are two components to employee satisfaction.
- Providing TEAM (Transition, Esteem, Awareness and Mission) training to new employees, to give them an understanding of YRMC’s Mission, Vision and Values and to allow them to create an individual mission statement.
- Hosting an annual employee awards reception, sponsoring Employee of the Month and Employee of the Year honors, and recognizing each of our employees on his or her anniversary date.
- Holding monthly communication meetings, in which our CEO meets with randomly selected employees to receive input on how we might improve patient care and the hospital’s working environment.
- Providing tuition reimbursement, mentor programs, and interest-free computer loans so employees can take advantage of online educational opportunities.
The Human Resources Department at YRMC continues to recruit outstanding individuals to join YRMC's team. Our employees are dedicated and skilled professionals who share our Vision of Creating a Total Healing Environment at YRMC and are committed to a common goal of enhancing health in the communities we serve.
Yavapai Regional Medical Center is located in Prescott and serves a wide area, including Prescott Valley and Chino Valley. For those certified/licensed healthcare professionals who are considering a move to Arizona, please check with the appropriate Arizona healthcare agencies.
about a career at YRMC.
YRMC... a Home Away From Home
A nurse from out of state, hoping to relocate to northern Arizona, set up interviews at YRMC and another larger hospital. Her husband also made the trip, and while his wife was being interviewed, the husband would sit in the hospital cafeterias, listening to what employees were saying about their jobs and each other. The difference between the two hospitals, said the nurse, was like night and day. At the other hospital, the majority of comments were negative and disheartening. At YRMC, all the husband heard were the good things people were saying about each other and their jobs. Care to guess where this nurse chose to work? See additional staff testimonials.
