At Atrium Health, it pays to refer. Robert is a Nurse Manager at Atrium Health who recruited Lara, a teammate previously featured for providing nine referrals to her Med/Surg unit at Atrium Health Cabarrus. In his hiring interviews, Robert emphasizes how each department at Atrium Health recognizes the importance of inclusion, support and encouragement of others. Robert says that all of Lara's referrals have "provided feedback on how much they like working at Atrium Health, how supported they feel, and what a unique culture exists where teamwork and support is provided at the unit, facility, and organizational levels." The bonus of the teammate referral program, Robert says, "is knowing the person you referred is also going to strive to meet the same expectations of high-quality clinical care, encouraging others, being supportive and inclusive of every teammate." Atrium Health is proud to offer teammates the opportunity to refer friends, family and former team members for eligible opportunities with the possibility to earn substantial cash rewards.
