LUMBERTON — Southeastern Regional Medical Center has been named a recipient of The Jackson Group’s prestigious Laureate Award for Workplace Excellence. This is the third time SRMC has won the award in five years.

A representative of The Jackson Group presented the award to the hospital’s leadership on Aug. 23.

The Laureate Award for Workplace Excellence was awarded to Southeastern based on work-climate survey results that exemplified excellence in the workplace over previous survey outcomes. This award signifies that Southeastern is firmly committed to providing a top-notch environment where teamwork and communication are paramount.

The Jackson Group, a survey services and consulting firm, along with the hospital’s leadership team and input from its employees, developed an action plan to monitor and gauge the successes of the organization.

“The 2012 Workplace Excellence award for Southeastern is an example of sustained excellence in creating a workplace of highly engaged employees,” said Connie Saunders, senior consultant for The Jackson Group Inc. “This was accomplished by the vision created and reinforced by senior leadership plus the day-to-day efforts of an effective leadership team.”
