SANDY SPRINGS, GA -- Sandy Springs' Northside Hospital is one of America's best employers.

That's according to the newly released 2016 Forbes survey of America’s Best Employers, which ranks the hospital 18th overall on the list.

The health care leader broke into the top 20 after moving up from No. 23 overall in 2015, the company said.

The rankings also list Northside Hospital as the No. 1 employer in the state, leading 14 other Georgia-based companies.

Northside Hospital is the only Georgia hospital ranked in the new Forbes survey and finished as the survey’s top health care employer in the southeast.

“Our employees dedicate themselves 24 hours a day to excellence, and these rankings are a tribute to their skills, commitment, and spirit,” said Bob Quattrocchi, president and CEO of Northside Hospital, Inc. “I am proud to be a part of the culture they have created, which begins and ends with patient care. They are leaders in their fields, and this recognition for them is appropriate and so well-deserved.”

The rankings were based on anonymous interviews with 30,000 employees from large companies (more than 5,000 employees).

The sample size grew by 50 percent from 20,000 interviews last year. Forbes also selected employers based on independent survey data from www.statista.com, and the mix of respondents varied in gender, age, region, education and ethnicity.
