Our teams are already providing top-notch care across the Appalachian Highlands, and we’re looking for passionate, talented individuals to continue elevating that level of care.”
Ballad Health offers competitive pay for its team members, with recently announced wage increases for certain clinical roles, including RNs, LPNs and unlicensed techs, along with sign-on bonuses for certain clinical roles. The organization also has opportunities for professional growth and development, and the Ballad Health benefits package includes medical, dental and vision insurance; prescription drug coverage; short-term and long-term disability; a health savings account; a retirement plan; employee assistance plan; a 30% discount for childcare at Ballad Health Centers for Early Learning; and a flexible spending account."

“The foundation of quality healthcare rests upon a quality team, and we’re fortunate to be surrounded by a region full of compassionate, talented people who are well-equipped to serve our community with the quality healthcare they deserve,” Miller said. “Whether its direct patient care, admissions or enhancing patient experiences, each member of our team plays an important role in the healthcare we deliver.”
