Onslow Memorial Hospital has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces in Health Care 2026, a distinction that honors employers demonstrating excellence in workplace culture, employee satisfaction, and ethical business practices.

The ranking was developed by Newsweek in partnership with Plant-A Insights and Aniline, a leading HR analytics company. The evaluation analyzed more than 1.3 million online employee reviews from U.S.-based organizations and assessed companies across six key pillars, including work-life balance, compensation and benefits, career development, and workplace culture.

“We are deeply honored to receive this recognition,” said Dr. Penney Burlingame Deal, President and CEO of Onslow Memorial Hospital. “At the heart of our Carolina Care Values is ‘One Great Team,’ and we truly live by this principle. We are committed to creating an environment where our teammates feel valued, supported and empowered to grow, collaborate and make a meaningful impact.”

"In a landscape where health care professionals are increasingly prone to burnout, the organizations that prioritize their people are the ones that will ultimately redefine patient care. Newsweek’s ranking of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces in Health Care 2026 highlights the employers who understand that a thriving workforce is the heartbeat of a successful institution. By rigorously analyzing data through the lens of those on the front lines, we aim to provide a roadmap for employees seeking fulfillment and a gold standard for employers striving to build cultures of belonging, excellence, and long-term growth,” said Jennifer Cunningham, Newsweek Editor-in-Chief.
