Today, June 4th, is National Healthcare Recruiter Recognition Day giving us the perfect opportunity to highlight the work that Allie does in the community to share our story and recruit qualified applicants to join the PLHS family. When asked about her favorite part of her role, Allie mentioned, "The thing I love most is meeting people through career fairs/school visits/job shadowing, and then seeing their name come through in applications!" When asked what she looks for in job candidates, she answered, "Passion for the healthcare field is always a priority. When your future employees love what they do or what they’re learning to do, it is so rewarding to see them find their fit within healthcare."

On Thursday, PLHS and Sodexo employees, volunteers, and board members gathered to celebrate our recent recognition as a Top 20 Rural & Community Hospital. John Allen, CEO, thanked our team gathered in our Prairie Lakes Hospital lobby while VPs were out sharing the same message of thanks at both of our Prairie Lakes Brown Clinic locations. All event attendees enjoyed a light snack and picked up a gift as a token of our appreciation for all the good work being done in order for us to earn such recognition. #employeeappreciation #workhardplayhard #communityhealthcare #caringforourcommunity #WeAreHealthCare #comeworkwithus

PLHS and @lakeareatech partnered to host Explore Camp today! Nearly 30 area high school students spent the morning learning about the intricacies of working in a hospital environment by participating in several hands-on simulations around the facility. We had volunteers from Same Day Surgery, Rehab Services, Emergency Medicine, HR, Marketing, Lab, Radiology, CCU, and others that jumped in to answer questions and share their expertise and experience with students interested in a medical career. We welcome students and various groups interested in healthcare and facility tours anytime! With over 30 departments and 800 employees, there is a LOT to share. #futurelifesavers #careerexploration #careersinhealthcare

It's Wound Care Nurses Week and we would like to thank the Wound Care nurses at Prairie Lakes Healthcare System. They are such an asset to this organization as they stay current on evidence based treatments for wounds that are stubborn to heal. They love collaborating with providers in the outpatient clinic and are a valuable resource for the inpatient departments. Their compassion and expertise is second to none and we are so lucky to have them in our community.
