Why Good Sam?
Good Sam. Great Choice!
When you join the staff at Good Samaritan Hospital, you’re instantly
regarded as a top professional in your field. The quality of our people
and professional relationships has gained us a national reputation for
excellence based on a hospital-wide commitment to outstanding patient
care. Good Samaritan Hospital offers prestige, satisfaction, enrichment—and
fun. Hospital staff are regularly treated to special events, including
ice cream socials, holiday dinners and staff appreciation ceremonies all
held on-campus in what has been described as a small city in itself. The
description is an apt one, with Good Samaritan housing an on-site childcare
center, credit union and fitness center.

treatment technologies, and extraordinary medical professionals.
