Client Info:
Situated in Palm Springs, CA, our client is the premier hospital in Coachella Valley. With one, convenient location and 400 beds, our client has a manageable scope compared to the sometimes chaotic multilocation health systems. Despite our client being situated in what can ostensibly be considered a resort town, the cost of living in Palm Springs is 10-20% less than other metropolitan areas in California. Many leaders working for our client have relocated from cities all over the country to enjoy not only working for this organization, but to take advantage of activities Palm Springs has to offer, like golf, hiking, mountain biking, and appreciating the mid-century architecture which is common in the area.
