Fisher-Titus Medical Center has been recognized by Newsweek as one of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces in Health Care 2026, a distinction that honors employers demonstrating excellence in workplace culture, employee satisfaction and ethical business practices. 
The ranking was developed by Newsweek in partnership with Plant-A Insights and Aniline, a leading HR analytics company. The evaluation analyzed more than 1.3 million online employee reviews from U.S.-based organizations and assessed companies across six key pillars, including work-life balance, compensation and benefits, career development and workplace culture.
“Being recognized as one of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces in Health Care is a true reflection of the incredible team we have here,” said Miriam Batke, Chief Human Resources Officer at Fisher-Titus. “This honor reinforces our belief that when we invest in our people, they are better equipped to deliver the exceptional care our patients and community deserve.”
“In a landscape where health care professionals are increasingly prone to burnout, the organizations that prioritize their people are the ones that will ultimately redefine patient care,” said Jennifer Cunningham, Newsweek Editor-in-Chief. “Newsweek’s ranking of America’s Greatest Midsize Workplaces in Health Care 2026 highlights the employers who understand that a thriving workforce is the heartbeat of a successful institution. By rigorously analyzing data through the lens of those on the front lines, we aim to provide a roadmap for employees seeking fulfillment and a gold standard for employers striving to build cultures of belonging, excellence, and long-term growth.”
Investing in the People Who Care for the Community
Fisher-Titus Medical Center employs more than 1,100 people and has long been one of Huron County’s largest employers. Rooted in the Norwalk community, the Medical Center plays a vital role not only in delivering quality health care to the region but also in providing stable, meaningful careers that allow employees to grow professionally without leaving the community they call home. That local commitment extends beyond patient care and shapes the way Fisher-Titus approaches every aspect of the employee experience.
Central to that approach is a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employees at every stage of life, including paid parental leave, adoption assistance, a 401(k) retirement plan, and more. Fisher-Titus continuously invests in its workforce through robust recognition programs, training and development opportunities, and partnerships with area colleges and universities. An Employee Advisory Group ensures that employee voices are heard and acted upon, driving ongoing improvements to the workplace. Approximately 22% of Fisher-Titus employees have been with the organization for more than 10 years, a testament to a culture where people feel valued and choose to build their careers.
