LifeBridge Health was one of 10 finalists and the overall winner of the Best Places to Work in Greater Baltimore award in the large business category (500-plus employees). More than 180 businesses and organizations entered the inaugural competition hosted by the Baltimore Business Journal.

“We are extremely proud to be recognized as one of the best places to work in Baltimore. Our dedicated and diverse staff works well as a team and is always focused on providing excellent quality of care for our patients,” said Warren Green, CEO ofLifeBridge Health, who accepted the award on behalf of all LifeBridge employees.

To qualify for the award, at least 300 employees had to complete an online survey about the company. LifeBridge Health had 420 people take time earlier this year to fill one out.

And the survey results were impressive. LifeBridge Health consistently scored higher than its local peers and the national average, earning high marks in categories like team effectiveness and trust with co-workers. Eighty percent of LifeBridge Health respondents said they felt like a valuable part of a team, compared to a national average of 69 percent, and 90 percent said their work is engaging.
