LONDON, Ky. (March 15, 2024) – Saint Joseph London has been recognized on the "Best Places to Work in Kentucky" list for the fifth consecutive year, earning a place in the Hall of Fame. Each year, the list identifies and recognizes Kentucky’s best employers. Saint Joseph London is one of 26 businesses making the list of top large-sized employers, which includes businesses with more than 500 employees.

“We are extremely proud to be recognized in the ‘Best Places to Work in Kentucky’ list for the fifth consecutive year, meaning we are entering the Hall of Fame,” said John Yanes, president, Saint Joseph London. “We could not receive this without our team’s unwavering commitment to cultivating an inviting and welcoming workplace to serve our patients with the best possible care.”

This is the 20th Annual Best Places to Work in Kentucky program – a multi-year initiative designed to motivate and inspire companies throughout the commonwealth to focus, measure and move their workplace environments toward excellence. 

Companies are selected based on an assessment of their employee policies, procedures, and the results of an internal employee survey.
