CHICAGO, Oct. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- CereCore® has been named No. 2 in the Family-Friendliest category for Suppliers on the Modern Healthcare's Best Places to Work in Healthcare list. This Family-Friendliest award honors companies who provide workplace flexibility and offer programs designed to support employees and their families in a variety of ways from social activities to wellbeing benefits.
This annual recognition underscores CereCore's consistent commitment to creating an outstanding workplace environment within the healthcare IT services sector. It marks the company's fourth consecutive year on the list.
"We are honored to receive a top ranking for our workplace. We place a strong emphasis on meeting the needs of our team members because that in turn supports their families, colleagues, and clients," said Curtis Watkins, CEO of CereCore.
"Programmatically, we do this through flexible work, career development opportunities, mission and community service, and programs for wellness, education, and a crisis fund. From a culture standpoint, we are intentional about seeing all of our colleagues as individuals, collaborating, and finding new ways to balance our commitment to clients and each other.

Modern Healthcare conducts an extensive employee survey and uses the findings to determine an employer's placement on the Best Places to Work in Healthcare list. This year's findings are based on the 61% response rate of a pool of randomly selected CereCore employees.
