HUNTINGTON, WABASH, Ind. – May 27, 2026 – Parkview Huntington Hospital and Parkview Wabash Hospital have been selected among Modern Healthcare’s 2026 Best Places to Work in Healthcare.
This annual award program identifies and recognizes outstanding employers in the healthcare industry nationwide. Modern Healthcare partners with Workforce Research Group on the assessment process, which includes a review of workplace policies and benefits and an extensive employee survey.
Both hospitals were last recognized as Modern Healthcare Best Places to Work in 2018 and 2019. Parkview Wabash Hospital was also named one of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce’s Best Places to Work this year.
“We’re proud to once again see Parkview Huntington and Parkview Wabash hospitals recognized by Modern Healthcare,” said Deb Potempa, market president, Parkview Health South. “These awards are special because they not only reflect the strong people-first approach Parkview takes in supporting its co-workers, but also because they are selected based on the direct feedback of our physicians, nurses, caregivers and administrative workers. Our co-workers are the ones who make our hospitals great places to work.”
Parkview has frequently been recognized for its excellent workplace culture and supports its more than 17,500 co-workers with a robust suite of benefits.

Parkview leadership also prioritizes listening to its co-workers through regular listening tours and internal surveys, ensuring their ideas directly shape workplace improvements and new programs. These efforts have helped maintain over 90% employee retention, outperforming national healthcare averages.
The health system ranked as the No. 5 Most Loved company in 2025; received its first certification as a national Great Place to Work in November; earned positions on Inspiring Workplaces Top 100 North America and Global lists two years in a row; and was named a Forbes Best-in-State Employer for four consecutive years.
