THE OKLAHOMAN NAMES CARTER HEALTHCARE A WINNER OF THE OKLAHOMA 2017 TOP WORKPLACES AWARD
OKLAHOMA CITY, December 11, 2017 — Carter Healthcare has been awarded a 2017 Top Workplaces honor by The Oklahoman. The Top Workplaces lists are based solely on the results of an employee feedback survey administered by Energage, LLC (formerly WorkplaceDynamics), a leading research firm that specializes in organizational health and workplace improvement. Several aspects of workplace culture were measured, including Alignment, Execution, and Connection, just to name a few.
“The Top Workplaces award is not a popularity contest. And oftentimes, people assume it’s all about fancy perks and benefits,” says Doug Claffey, CEO of Energage. “But to be a Top Workplace, organizations must meet our strict standards for organizational health. And who better to ask about work life than the people who live the culture every day—the employees. Time and time again, our research has proven that what’s most important to them is a strong belief in where the organization is headed, how it’s going to get there, and the feeling that everyone is in it together.” Claffey adds, “Without this sense of connection, an organization doesn’t have a shot at being named a Top Workplace.”
Carter Healthcare has 361 employees throughout the state of Oklahoma, with offices in the following communities: Altus, Ardmore, Bartlesville, Chickasha, Clinton, Durant, Enid, Grove, Lawton, McAlester, Muskogee, Norman, Oklahoma City, Okmulgee, Pryor, Shawnee, Stillwater, Tahlequah, Tulsa, Vinita, and Woodward.
“At Carter Healthcare, helping people live better lives is not only our mission, it is intertwined with our culture and our way of doing business,” said Brad Carter, chief operations officer at Carter Healthcare. “By fostering an informed, encouraging atmosphere for our employees, we enable them to provide optimal patient care. Being recognized as a Top Workplace demonstrates that we’re succeeding in establishing that supportive environment for our employees.”
