We partner with our community, our patients, and their families to ensure access to outstanding care for everyone while improving health and wellness through teaching, patient and community education, and research.
We believe equity is essential for optimal health outcomes and are committed to achieve optimal health for all by actively eliminating barriers due to racism, poverty, gender identity, and other determinants of health. We are deeply committed to the goals of health equity and antiracism by teaching and working in an environment characterized by celebrating diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. Applicants from diverse backgrounds or historically under-resourced communities are especially encouraged to apply.
Hennepin Healthcare benefit offerings (0.50 FTE or greater) include: several medical insurance plans to select from, dental insurance, generous 401(a) company contribution and paid time off, annual Business Expense Account dollars, time off for Continuing Medical Education, and more. As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Hennepin Healthcare is a qualifying employer for the Public Service Loan Forgiveness program. Our Office of Professional Worklife and other institutional supports are available to help with your sense of wellness. It is our firm belief that we must attend to our own well-being before we can care for others.
About the Community
Minneapolis and Saint Paul make up the Twin Cities with a major metropolitan population of over one million (over 3.5 million in the greater metropolitan area). Minneapolis is the City of Parks and Lakes boasting top placement nationally as a bike-friendly city. Built around the Mississippi River, the Twin Cities have become an educational, cultural, recreational and business destination.
Located in downtown Minneapolis, Hennepin County Medical Center enjoys many nearby amenities for major sports franchises and the largest grouping of theater seating per capita outside New York City. HCMC is easily accessible from major highways in all directions as well as easy light rail access to the Airport and Mall of America.
Medscape recently named Minneapolis as a best place to practice medicine due to factors such as teamwork with Nurse Practitioners & Physician Assistants, great cost of living, healthy patient population and abundant recreation opportunities.
