Employment Philosophy

 

At Optima Health, a service of Sentara Healthcare, we seek to employ individuals whose values mirror our guiding principles of people, quality, service, patient safety, and integrity.

Our employees:
  • Are team players, yet have the confidence to take risks in appropriately asserting their viewpoints to further new ideas and assist in creative problem solving.
  • Have the willingness and ability to change and be flexible as new conditions and opportunities arise.
  • View employment with our organization as a career opportunity and conduct themselves with absolute integrity in all aspects of business.

We have pledged positive action to ensure each of our more than 15,500 employees has the same chance to succeed and be heard.

 

This means each person's opportunity to advance depends on ability, performance, attitude, consistent values, and potential - regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, age, or disability.

 

This dedication to equal employment opportunity reaches into all areas of the organization and is reflected in our advertising, recruitment, interviewing, testing, promotion/transfer, and performance management policies. In addition, we believe and practice 'promotion from within,' and give employees first consideration prior to outside recruitment.

 

We are successful and highly productive because of our people. We work together to provide opportunity, challenge, and employment satisfaction as we continue the commitment of serving our customers and achieving our goals.

 

*Optima Health a service of Sentara Healthcare is an equal opportunity employer.
