Professional Diversity Network

You don’t have to put your life on hold to move healthcare forward. At Geisinger, we empower you to bring your whole self to the job – working side-by-side with industry leaders to create new care delivery models, all while enjoying a work-life balance that allows you to thrive personally and professionally. And with our Diversity and Inclusion Council, we’re committed to our mission of providing culturally competent care, providing you the support you need, so you can be there for your family, friends and neighbors – making a difference at home and across the country.

A diverse Geisinger workforce is essential for culturally competent care. The more inclusive we are, the better we can understand and reflect our communities, patients and members.
