Tampa, FL – HCA Florida Pasadena Hospital, as a part of HCA Healthcare, today announced that it has been recognized on Fortune’s 2024 World’s Most Admired Companies list. This year, HCA Healthcare is ranked first overall in its industry.
To determine this year’s list, Fortune collaborated with Korn Ferry to analyze 660 companies across 52 industries in 29 countries. The top-rated companies were rated by executives, directors and analysts on nine criteria: innovation, people management, use of corporate assets, social responsibility, quality of management, financial soundness, long-term investment, quality of products and services, and global competitiveness.
“Every day, we strive to be more than just a healthcare facility; we aim to be a beacon of excellence and compassion,” said Brent Burish, CEO of HCA Florida Pasadena and St. Petersburg Hospitals. “Our dedication to showing up for our patients, to being a leader in innovative care, and to making a meaningful difference in the lives of those we touch is unwavering. Together, we're not just providing healthcare; we're shaping the future of our community's well-being.”
In 2023, HCA Healthcare recruited more than 116,500 colleagues, including 37,500 bedside nurses. To support its colleagues, HCA Healthcare offers a variety of programs, resources and opportunities, including education assistance, financial well-being programs and the HCA Healthcare Leadership Institute, which has graduated more than 21,200 colleagues since its inception in 2014.
HCA Healthcare strives to find new, innovative ways to elevate care delivery for its patients. The organization’s Care Transformation and Innovation (CT&I) team works closely with clinicians to refine tools, such as generative AI to assist care teams with time-consuming tasks like documentation and a scheduling and staffing solution for nurses, and to expand the use of technology throughout the organization.
HCA Healthcare’s dedication to improve more lives in more ways extends beyond the walls of its hospitals. The organization’s environmental strategy includes both short- and long-term sustainability plans and centers on incorporating four key pillars into operations, including managing energy and water responsibly, enhancing climate resilience, sourcing and consuming efficiently and managing the environmental impact of capital programs.
In 2024 alone, HCA Florida Pasadena Hospital employees have contributed over 350 volunteering hours to the greater Tampa Bay area and generously donated over $11,000 to local charities, including the HCA Hope Fund, which helps HCA employees in times of need.
