• Ask your educators
  Almost all of the opportunities in the healthcare industry require some advanced training after high school. When you are trying to find the best hospitals to work for in your area, email a former professor or instructor. These health educators are likely to be aware of local reputations and the best hospitals to work for. Additionally, you may be able to get valuable contact information from your former professors that can get you a leg up in the best hospitals. It never hurts to network.
• Word of mouth
  Talk to current colleagues or friends who also work in the healthcare industry. They may know the best hospitals to work for through previous experience. More importantly, your associates may know where you may not want to work, which can be just as valuable.
• Contact a professional organization
  There are many local and national organizations devoted to helping healthcare professionals. If you know someone in one of these professional organizations, contact them for advice about which hospitals are the best to work for.
• Talk to a patient
  If you have friends or family members who have had to spend time in a hospital, they can provide valuable information about how that hospital operates. Patients pay attention to their healthcare staff. They likely noticed if nurses or medical assistants, for example, were happy and relaxed or stressed and overworked.
