Join an Organization that Puts its People First!

Interested in helping grow a healthcare model based on trusting relationships, joy in work, and health equity? Orchid Health might be just the place for you!

Orchid Health was founded over 10 years ago with the belief that the most effective way to improve the health of our communities is through integrated patient-centered care that takes the time to listen to and build trusting relationships with each patient. We currently see thousands of patients at our Oregon clinic locations, all supported by a talented, passionate, and dedicated staff.

Our mission is to advance a new model for community health to thrive based on relationships, joy in work, and health equity. We achieve this by leaning into our four pillars and core values :

Core Values :

  • Challenge the Status Quo
  • Cultivate Respect
  • Courageously Vulnerable and Accountable

Four Pillars (in order of priority) :

  • Pillar 1 : Employee Well-Being
  • Pillar 2 : Trusting Patient Relationships
  • Pillar 3 : Community Health
  • Pillar 4 : Financial Sustainability

    • Why work for Orchid Health?

    At Orchid Health, we’re moving away from traditional top-down management to something more human : self-management. Our teams work together to make most day-to-day decisions, without a clinic manager giving direction. Instead, team members take on shared responsibilities based on their strengths, hold each other accountable, and are supported by peers, coaches, and access to clear, timely information. This structure reduces bureaucracy, supports collaboration, and makes work more meaningful. We believe that the people doing the work are best positioned to lead it, and we’ve built our organization around that belief. Orchid’s team members have abundant opportunities to expand their professional skills in a supportive environment, participate in community outreach efforts, and enjoy a robust benefits package.

    Compensation :

  • $139,000 - $170,000 / year depending on experience and skills
  • $8,000 sign-on bonus! First $4,000 paid after 30 days of employment, second $4,000 paid after 12 months of employment.

    • Benefits :

  • Medical, Dental, & Vision – Orchid pays monthly premiums at 100% for team members and at least 50% for their dependents for base medical and dental plans
  • $1,000 / year Wellness Benefit - for things that make you happy!
  • 401(k) with a company match and financial planning and wellness resources available at no cost
  • A Continuing Education / Continuing Medical Education budget for all team members
  • An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) that provides mental health support, financial planning, and lifestyle training opportunities, at no cost to employees
  • Approved sites for Student Loan Repayment Programs with NHSC and Oregon Health Care Providers
  • 128 hours of PTO per year, annually front-loaded with tenure-based increases
  • 40 hours of paid inclement weather and emergency closure leave, annually front-loaded
  • 8 paid holidays, plus your birthday off!
  • Free care at our clinics for team members and their families
  • And more!
  • Team members are eligible for benefits on the first of the month following 30 days of employment.
