Since the organization’s beginning, Riverside Healthcare has proven its commitment to the health and well-being of its employees. For its dedication to promoting employee health, Riverside came in first place in the 2025 Healthiest Employers of Illinois (in the 500- to 1,999-employee category, reflecting the number of full-time employees).
This ranking is part of the annual national list, Healthiest 100 Workplaces in America, which has included Riverside Healthcare for the last 10 years. In 2022, Riverside Healthcare was among the first 20 inductees of the Healthiest Employers Hall of Fame, which includes organizations that have been named to the Healthiest 100 Workplaces in America more than five times, and continue to demonstrate an ongoing commitment to their population’s health.
This year, Riverside Healthcare is among the 14 health systems included on the national 100 list. Healthiest Employers recognizes organizations like Riverside for their commitment to workplace wellness and exceptional health and benefits offerings. Increased flexibility, work-life balance, and mental health resources are common trends among Healthiest Employers honorees.
“At Riverside, caring for our community means caring for the people who work here,” said Riverside Healthcare President and CEO Phil Kambic. “Through REACH (Riverside Employees Actively Choosing Health) and our Well In Mind program, we support our employees’ physical and mental well-being, and we’re encouraged by how engaged our staff has been. When our employees feel healthier and more supported, they’re able to provide the outstanding care our community counts on.”
The REACH wellness program at Riverside provides employees and their family members access to numerous opportunities, including education, challenges, insurance incentives, and more.
