Maintaining uniform and personal appearance standards is crucial for upholding the hospital's professional image and infection control measures.

This position emphasizes a strong focus on safety, requiring Hospital Housekeepers to report any hazards or unsafe work conditions promptly. The role supports the frontline healthcare team by ensuring the environment contributes positively to patient healing and staff efficiency. Qualified candidates typically have a high school diploma or equivalent, and preference is given to individuals with healthcare experience and related housekeeping or service roles.

HCA Florida Memorial Hospital offers an impressive total rewards package that caters to the holistic well-being of its associates. The benefits include medical, prescription drug, dental, vision, behavioral health, and telemedicine services. Support for employee well-being extends to free counseling and referral services. The hospital encourages work-life balance through paid time off, paid family leave, and disability coverages. Financial security is also a priority, with a competitive 401(k) plan featuring a 100% match on contributions between 3% to 9% of pay, employee stock purchase plans, and various financial counseling services. Further benefits include tuition and student loan assistance, certification support, fertility and family-building aid, adoption assistance, life and supplemental insurance options, and even legal and identity theft protection.

Joining HCA Florida Memorial Hospital means becoming part of a family of more than 270,000 dedicated professionals who are united by a shared mission and values formed by the company’s founders, including Dr. Thomas Frist, Sr. The hospital emphasizes equal opportunity employment, promoting a workplace free from discrimination based on race, religion, gender, age, and other factors, while fostering a culture of respect, safety, and continuous improvement.
