Service Excellence: a team-centered approach

At Northern Nevada Medical Center, each employee takes part in our Service Excellence Program. They are guided by the following three standards:

1. Treat everyone as a guest.
2. Demonstrate professionalism and excellence in the things I do.
3. Practice teamwork.

These Service Excellence standards help to determine everything we do and everything we accomplish. Our employees truly make a difference in the quality of healthcare we provide to our patients in the communities we serve.

An opportunity to grow

Our organization has a solid history of recognizing outstanding performers. Our principle of employee development says it best: “The professionalism and drive of our people are the most important factors in the quality of the service we provide. We hire talented people, increase their skills through training and experience, and provide opportunities for personal and professional growth within the company.”

Part of attracting and retaining talented, motivated people is giving them the opportunity to grow. UHS provides encouragement and financial backing for our employees’ job-related training and continuing education. For those who wish to excel, the opportunities are significant.

In the words of UHS Chairman and CEO Alan B. Miller, “Our goal is not to be the biggest but the highest in quality…and to offer the best working environment to our people.”
