Frankfort Regional Medical Center was recently named as one of the Best Places to Work in Kentucky for 2012 - making the recognition the sixth consecutive for the hospital. The awards program was created in 2005 and is a project of the Kentucky Chamber of Commerce, Kentucky SHRM Council and Best Companies Group. Frankfort Regional received the overall number one ranking for the large-sized employer list back in 2009.
“Being named as one of the Best Places to Work in Kentucky for the sixth consecutive year demonstrates the winning culture our employees have created and embraced here at Frankfort Regional,” said Chip Peal, the hospital’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our employees are just as important as our other customers – patients, families and affiliated physicians. We listen to and respect their opinions, respond to their needs to the best of our ability, and treat them as indispensable parts of our organization.”
This statewide survey and awards program was designed to identify, recognize and honor the best places of employment in Kentucky, benefiting the state's economy, its workforce and businesses. The Best Places to Work in Kentucky 2012 list is made up of 65 companies – 37 of which are in the large sized category.

- Have at least 25 employees working in Kentucky;
- Be a for-profit or not-for-profit business or government entity;
- Be a publicly or privately held business;
- Have a facility in the state of Kentucky; and
- Must be in business a minimum of 1 year.
The selection process, managed by Best Companies Group, is based on an assessment of the company’s employee policies and procedures and the results of an internal employee survey.
