"Of all the many things that I appreciate about working at Summit Healthcare, I think that the culture that we’ve built and are continuously building is what separates us from other organizations. It’s a culture that embraces flexibility, celebrates diversity of thought and approach, and one that makes it easier to come to work every day. Summit Healthcare is a company that values their employee's work-life balance and they promote an employee centered approach to motivate one's best work.  It’s been an awesome 11 years and I’m excitedly looking forward to the many years to come!"

Jarrett Maxwell, Director of Cardiopulmonary

"Summit Healthcare is like a family to me.  I have worked here for 18 years and truly enjoy my job.  The White Mountains is an incredible place to live, it is a place where we can enjoy all four seasons.  I love being a part of a 5 Star CMS facility where we give quality care to our friends, our neighbors and our family.  I had both of my children at this hospital and have had all my care here too.  I’ve been to other facilities with family members and none of them hold a candle to Summit Healthcare."

Diane Murphy, Senior Executive Assistant

"I am, and always have been, proud to be a part of the Summit Healthcare Team!  We are like family here at Summit.  We have a high-functioning team with state-of-the-art facilities and resources.  We truly care about giving our patients compassionate and competent care.  Our beautiful, small-town community is a great place to live, especially if you like to play as hard as you work."

Sean Hopler, RN, BSN - Director of Emergency Services

"Summit Healthcare is synonymous with "home."  The work environment is welcoming. Employees care about each other. The patients feel like they are "more than just a number" when they get their care here.  We band together during challenging times and do what needs to be done as one team!  I spent 26 years of my nursing career at Summit Healthcare because there was no place I'd rather be!"

Jayne Simms, RN, BSN, MSN - Director of Med Surg

"After working 10+ years in a large Academic Health Center helping rural hospitals, the last three years at Summit has been a true blessing.  I get to work closely with amazing clinicians, providers, staff and ESPECIALLY our dedicated NURSES.  The White Mountains is a great place to raise a family and enjoy all the natural beauty and activities in a small town atmosphere".

Susy Salvo Wendt, Telehealth Specialist

"There are so many reasons I love working for Summit Healthcare. We are a smaller community, which means I get to know my patients and colleagues on a different level. Our community is like one big family, we all look out for each other. Summit provides countless opportunities for growth and development, and everybody here wants to see you succeed. Our Nurse Residency Program provides new nurses the opportunity to gain the skills and knowledge needed for a solid foundation in nursing practice, and allows them to discover which patient care area is right for them. We have an amazing organization and the White Mountains is a great place to raise a family. This is by far THE place to be in Arizona."
