When you work at Beaufort Memorial, you’ll find a strong commitment to our employees and their families. We feel that commitment is the foundation for great patient care.

We hire dedicated professionals who share our core values of safety, innovation and compassion, are positive and energetic, and devoted to providing the highest quality of care.

Supporting Work-Life Balance

We believe supporting our employees’ health requires more than access to high-quality medical care. It’s making sure employees also have the time they need to recharge, enjoy time with family and friends, and invest in self-care activities.

To support well-being and encourage a healthy work-life balance, we offer the following benefits:

• Discounted childcare
• Discounted meal prices at Riverview Café, our hospital cafeteria
• Discounts to local businesses
• Emergency financial assistance
• Generous paid time off
• Group banking and credit union
• Homebuyer Assistance Program, which provides up to $10,000 in down-payment or closing-cost assistance to those who qualify
• Public student loan forgiveness
• Tuition reimbursement

• Wellness benefits, including free employee memberships at the Beaufort Memorial LifeFit Wellness Center, which includes a health status screening, personalized exercise plan, access to state-of-the-art exercise equipment and free group exercise classes.
• Stress management and emotional support through regular Schwartz Rounds sessions
• Free access to a resiliency and emotional well-being app aimed at preventing burnout

Beaufort Memorial employees also have access to our employee assistance program, which connects you with fully licensed mental health professionals who can help with a range of issues, including:

• Grief
• Marital stress
• Relationship difficulties
• Substance abuse problems
• Work stress

In addition, the program provides access to legal and financial services in the community.

Recognizing Excellence

Our employees work hard to provide excellent care and services to our patients, and we want to acknowledge those efforts. We reward exemplary service and longevity with many employee recognition programs, such as DAISY Awards for our nurses, patient experience awards and peer-to-peer recognition through the Beaufort Memorial Hub. We also offer gain-sharing participation, which includes awarding bonuses based on achieving hospital and department goals.

Planning for the Future

We’re focused on helping our employees make the most of today while planning for a bright tomorrow. To help you create a solid financial foundation, we offer:

• Tax-deferred compensation plans, including 401(k) and 457(b) plans
• South Carolina state pension plans

We also offer benefits to keep you and your family prepared for the unexpected, including:

Health Plan Coverage Transparency

As our employer-sponsored health plan carrier, Cigna provides machine readable files which include negotiated service rates and out-of-network allowed-amounts between health plans and healthcare providers. These machine-readable files are made available in response to the federal Transparency in Coverage Rule and are formatted to allow researchers, regulators and application developers to access and analyze data more easily.
