Mercyhealth Looks to Attract and Retain Talent

Mercyhealth is not exempt from workforce challenges. The organization’s leadership focused on developing creative ways to attract and retain high-caliber talent to fill the ranks at Mercyhealth. The goal was to create a workplace where individuals are able to bring their best selves to work, receive the training and tools to be successful while looking at strategies to modernize our overall rewards structure. 

Student loan debt repayment program 

One of the newest initiatives to attract and retain nurses is a student loan debt repayment program for employees working in a job that requires a registered nurse license. Through the program, Mercyhealth makes payments directly to the employee’s selected eligible loan service provider. This payment is an additional payment designed to help employees pay their loans off faster and save on interest.
