Generous time-off policies and flexible schedules attract employees to this health care system. “The numerous community clinics and specialty centers allow me to move up, down and around as my circumstances change,” explains Laurie Collins, a registered nurse. Under the Combined Time Off program, anyone who works 20 hours or more per week may take at least nine paid days off annually (after one year of service).
