MetroHealth

The MetroHealth System is redefining health care by going beyond medical treatment to improve the foundations of community health and well-being: affordable housing, a cleaner environment, economic opportunity and access to fresh food, convenient transportation, legal help and other services.
The system strives to become as good at preventing disease as it is at treating it. The system’s more than 600 doctors, 1,700 nurses and nearly 9,000 employees go to work each day with a mission of service, to their patients and to the community.
As Cuyahoga County’s safety-net health system, MetroHealth plays an essential role in the region, caring for anyone and everyone, regardless of the ability to pay.
Founded in 1837, MetroHealth operates four hospitals, four emergency departments and more than 20 health centers and 40 additional sites throughout Cuyahoga County. The system serves more than 300,000 patients, two-thirds of whom are uninsured or covered by Medicare or Medicaid.
MetroHealth is home to Cuyahoga County’s most experienced Level I Adult Trauma Center, verified since 1992, and Ohio’s only adult and pediatric trauma and burn center. As an academic medical center, MetroHealth is committed to research and to teaching and training tomorrow’s caregivers. Each active staff physician holds a faculty appointment at Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine. Its main campus hospital houses the Cleveland Metropolitan School District’s Lincoln-West School of Science & Health, the only high school in America located inside a hospital.
Knowing that good health is about much more than good medical care, MetroHealth has launched the Institute for H.O.P.E.™ (Health, Opportunity, Partnership, Empowerment), which uses a coordinated, collaborative and strategic approach to help patients with non-medical needs such as healthy food, stable housing and job training.
MetroHealth offers a very competitive compensation package, health insurance, paid time off, liability insurance, an academic appointment to the Case Western Reserve School of Medicine faculty at a rank commensurate with experience, CME opportunities, malpractice coverage and an impressive pension program with a generous employer match through the Ohio Public Employees Retirement System (OPERS).
Cleveland is a wonderful place to live. Situated on beautiful Lake Erie, Cleveland and adjacent suburbs offer an established, friendly environment with something for everyone. From the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame to the world-famous Cleveland Orchestra and everything in between, music lovers have no shortage of options. Cleveland is home to the second-largest theater district in the country, Playhouse Square. Sports fans and outdoor enthusiasts will not be disappointed, with the city’s three professional sports teams and over 25,000 acres of Cleveland Metroparks. For foodies, Eater calls Cleveland’s restaurant scene “vibrant, diverse, and balanced” (The 38 Essential Cleveland Restaurants (eater.com)). All of this with an affordable cost-of-living make Cleveland a great place to call home!
