At Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare, we have some of the best Associates around. Their dedication to carrying out our mission and displaying the values of the organization is evident in their outstanding work. When individuals and teams perform above and beyond the call of duty, their actions may be rewarded with special recognition. 

Recognizing Excellence

We consistently recognize our Associates for with awards for the Power of One, Miracles in Motion, Inspiration, Service, Nursing, RNs In Search of Excellence (RISE) and during National Healthcare Week. When our Associates show excellent leadership skills and a willingness to be a leader in organizational improvement, we want to help them develop their potential through the Maurice Elliott Leadership Institute (MELI).

Competitive Benefits

MLH Associates have the opportunity to take advantage of medical coverage through an Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO). MLH also offers dental and vision benefits, all deducted pre-tax. MLH pays a large portion of the premium. Full-time and part-time Associates are eligible for coverage on the first day of the month following date of hire.

Paid Time Off (PTO) allows Associates to accumulate days off based on the number of years as a Methodist Associate. Traditionally used as vacation, sick and holiday time, PTO, accrued bi-weekly, can be used for any absence. We also know how important work/life balance is to Associates, and we provide the most flexible scheduling possible.
