Mercy Medical Center Named Among America's "Most Trustworthy Companies" by Newsweek

Mercy Medical Center has been named one of America's "Most Trustworthy Companies" by Newsweek magazine for the second consecutive year, earning the recognition in 2023 and 2024.

Of 700 U.S. companies noted for trustworthiness, Mercy was one of only 10 hospitals and health systems this year to be named.

"In healthcare delivery, establishing trust is absolutely vital for effective patient care. At Mercy, it is endemic to our mission, to create a safe, caring, compassionate environment for our patients, for our employees, and all those who enter our doors. Newsweek's recognition of Mercy as among the nation's most trustworthy organizations is a testament to Mercy's commitment to excellence in all that we do," said Dr. David N. Maine, President and CEO, Mercy Health Services, Mercy Medical Center.

Newsweek partnered with Statista in a ranking that lists 700 U.S. companies based on trustworthiness. Public and private companies across 23 industries - including healthcare, banking, insurance, media and clothing - were included based on an independent survey of about 25,000 Americans that took place in October and November 2023.

Those surveyed rated companies they knew based on three pillars: customer, investor, and employee trust. The resulting list was based on 97,000 company evaluations submitted by participants and more than 523,000 online mentions.

Internet media mentions of each company were analyzed, and companies involved in recent scandals or lawsuits related to trustworthiness were excluded from the ranking.

Newsweek also recognized Mercy in 2023 as one of "America's Greatest Workplaces for Women", as Mercy earned 4.5 out of 5 stars on a scored list of the top 600 companies in the U.S. for women in the workplace.

Mercy was also ranked as one of the top 400 midsize employers (1,000-5,000 employees) in the U.S. for 2024 by Forbes magazine, a leading national business publication.
