Why employees stay: Stories from long-tenured team members

What makes someone stay with an organization for 10, 12 or even 20 years?

At Encompass Health, many employees build lasting careers because they find meaningful work, opportunities for growth and teammates who feel like family. Their experiences highlight what makes our culture special and why so many people choose to stay.

For Ashley, an RN at Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of Parkersburg, the relationships she’s built over the years have made all the difference.

“After more than 20 years, I’ve found more than just a job at Encompass Health,” Ashley said. “I’ve found my home and coworkers, whom I consider family.” Opportunities to learn and grow

Career growth looks different for everyone. For Elizabeth, Encompass Health supported her journey from physical therapist assistant to physical therapist while helping her continue to develop professionally.

“I’ve been with Encompass Health for 10 years, starting as a PTA. I went back to school to become a PT with the help of Encompass Health,” Elizabeth said“I also recently received my geriatric certification. I am proud to work for a company that values my feedback.”

Trust in the team

A supportive team can make all the difference in healthcare. Shira says the people she works with are one of the reasons she’s proud to have spent more than a decade with Encompass Health.

“Working at Encompass Health is rewarding!” said Shira,  I trust my co-workers because they are compassionate when it comes to the quality of patient care. I am proud to say that I have been with the company for 12 years.” -Shira, PAS Coordinator
