UF Health St. Johns Education Services is about creating a hospital culture in which every employee feels valued and in turn values the opportunity to grow through education and self-development.
Our approach is different than a traditional hospital staff development department in that we offer a multidimensional approach to helping employees achieve their maximum potential. This approach is focused on employees' gaining job-related knowledge and skills and developing the life management skills that facilitate healthier, more balanced lifestyles. The underlying assumption is that better people make better employees. The ultimate goal is to create a hospital culture in which every employee feels the ownership needed for the successful pursuit of excellence in the performance of their jobs.
