For the fourth year in a row, Four Seasons, The Care You Trust, was selected as one of the Best Places to Work in Healthcare by Modern Healthcare. Four Seasons is a nationally recognized nonprofit organization providing Care Navigation, Home Care, Palliative Care, Hospice Care, Pediatric Palliative and Hospice Care, and Grief Services to fourteen counties in Western North Carolina.

Four Seasons has received this award five times in total, receiving the honor in 2021, 2023, 2024, 2025, and now in 2026. They did not participate in the 2022 awards.

“Every day our team co-creates the care experience for our community with a heart of compassion," says Four Seasons President & CEO, Dr. Millicent Burke-Sinclair, Ed.D, MBA, MLAS, SPHR®, SHRM SCP. "Our team of dedicated, passionate, and experienced professionals love the community and seeks to provide the very the best care. That care begins internally as we work to support each other so we are able to best support those who entrust us with their care. I am so grateful that Four Seasons is once again recognized as a Best Place to Work." 

This award program identifies and recognizes outstanding employers in the healthcare industry nationwide. Modern Healthcare partners with Workforce Research Group on the assessment process, which includes an extensive employee survey.

“We are so proud and humbled to be honored for a fifth year as a Best Place to Work by Modern Healthcare," says Lauren Purdy, Four Seasons Chief Leadership Officer. "Thank you to our staff serving across every corner of the organization who are open in sharing their feedback on this survey and throughout the year.

Feedback that we receive from surveys like this inspire positive change to help make us an even better place to work year after year. Thank you to Modern Healthcare for this recognition, and to our amazing Four Seasons Staff for the hard, important work that they do each day in service to our community.”
