The award process evaluates companies based on metrics including professional growth, employee empowerment, and overall workplace support. To qualify, organizations must maintain a substantial local footprint and meet strict participation thresholds among their staff. This recurring honor serves as a benchmark for employee satisfaction within the competitive St. Louis healthcare market.

LeeAnn Lang, Senior Vice President of Administration and Human Resources at Graham Healthcare Group, credited the achievement to the consistent dedication of the company’s care teams. She emphasized that the award reflects years of sustained effort in listening to staff needs rather than isolated initiatives. Residential Home Health and Hospice, a subsidiary of Graham Holdings Company, currently operates across seven states, employing thousands of professionals tasked with managing complex home health and palliative care journeys.
