Carolina Caring has been named among Modern Healthcare’s Best Places to Work in Healthcare 2026, marking the eighth year in a row that the nonprofit healthcare organization has received this national honor.
This award program identifies and recognizes healthcare organizations nationwide that are leading the way in employee engagement and workplace culture. Modern Healthcare partners with Workforce Research Group on the assessment process, which includes an extensive employee survey.
Carolina Caring serves thirteen counties across western North Carolina and the Charlotte region and maintains a strong commitment to providing compassionate care to all patients and families facing serious illness. Being named among the Best Places to Work in Healthcare 2026 is a testament to how Carolina Caring raises the standards of a compassionate, professional, mission-driven workplace.
“This recognition means so much because it reflects the culture that all of our employees and leadership help create every day,” said Christina McNally, President & CEO, Carolina Caring. “I want to thank every member of our organization for continuing to make Carolina Caring a place where people feel valued, supported, and connected to meaningful work. This achievement belongs to all of you.”
Carolina Caring will find out their ranking on the Best Places list and be celebrated during the 2026 Best Places to Work in Healthcare Awards Gala on September 16th in Houston, Texas.
“Healthcare is changing rapidly as new technologies are adopted on both the clinical and administrative sides,” said Mary Ellen Podmolik, editor-in-chief of Modern Healthcare. “Still, the most forward-looking companies understand that employees are the heart of their organizations. Creating the right culture, with the appropriate mix of financial rewards, training and career advancement opportunities—as embodied by our honorees of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare—will be imperative for long-term employee and employer success.”
