Legacy Health System Careers in Portland, OR

"Legacy Health, a nonprofit, locally owned organization based in Portland, Oregon, and serving Oregon and Southwest Washington, is well-known for its hospitals, the only health system covering the Portland-Vancouver area with multiple hospitals and a specialized children’s hospital. Legacy's roots go back more than 100 years. Our two largest hospitals were founded (Good Samaritan in 1875 and Emanuel in 1912) by faith-based groups seeking to care for the growing city. As the decades went on, those two hospitals grew into larger health organizations. In 1989 they merged to create Legacy Health System. What is now known as “Legacy Health” is one of the largest private-sector employers in the Portland metropolitan area.
