Caring for Our
Workforce
The Heart & Soul of Our Health System
About one in 50 people in Fresno County wears a Community Health System ID badge – as an employee, volunteer, student, contract worker or affiliated medical provider such as a dentist, doctor or paramedic. It takes the strength of all of us working together to better the lives of all those we serve. Community is committed to growing and managing a workforce that meets the Valley’s expanding health needs, including creating opportunities to encourage those with special expertise to relocate or stay here to provide more people in our community with access to medical care.
