Culture and Values at Cedars-Sinai
As a healthcare professional at Cedars-Sinai, you'll find a culture that values education and supports your personal and professional growth. Our learning programs, tuition reimbursement and performance-improvement projects give our employees the chance to achieve additional certifications and degrees while working with us and gaining the knowledge and experience they need to grow.
We also believe in giving all of our employees a voice. Through our shared governance model, we ensure that your voice is heard. Our unit practice councils include our MD-RN committee and enable our nursing staff, physicians and management to work together to improve quality, service and overall performance. Our inclusive and collaborative culture is a driving force behind the outstanding care we provide and our successful patient outcomes.
Every patient is different, and so are our employees.
At Cedars-Sinai we celebrate our differences.
Each of us brings something different to our work - differences in who we are, what we've experienced, and how we think. We use our differences to make us better caregivers, researchers and support staff. The one thing we all share is a passion for improving the health of the Los Angeles community and beyond.
