Carmen Olver is an Occupational Therapist in the beautiful Elk Valley.

Once again Interior Health has been named as on of BC’s Top Employers. And for the first time we’ve also received the honour of being one of the best employers in the country for young people.

What’s behind our success? One word:people.

Hear from our people about why IH is a great place to work

What makes us great? There are 18,000 reasons

We have our employees to thank for this achievement – to our younger employees for continuously showcasing a passion for their craft with a desire to learn and grow; and to our experienced team members who take the time to share their wealth of knowledge to help develop the future of health-care workers and leaders.

“I am incredibly proud of our employees and immensely grateful for their perseverance and unwavering commitment to care, even during these unprecedented and challenging times,” said Susan Brown, Interior Health president and CEO. “In every corner of our organization, teams have come together and supported one another, helped each other and never lost sight of our common goal – health and well-being for all.”  

We have more than 18,000 employees across the region – and we’re always looking for more great people to join our team.
