MultiCare Clinics

Today, it has grown into the largest community-based, locally governed health system in Washington state, operating more than 300 primary, urgent, pediatric, and specialty care locations across Washington, Idaho, and Oregon, along with 13 hospitals. The system employs over 28,000 employees, including nearly 6,000 registered nurses and over 2,000 employed physicians and advanced practice providers. MultiCare Clinics represent the ambulatory and outpatient arm of this regional health system, offering nurses opportunities in diverse settings including primary care, urgent care, pediatrics, and specialty care. For nursing professionals, MultiCare Clinics provide exposure to a wide range of practice environments within a single integrated system. The MultiCare Cancer Institute, a physician-led multi-specialty group within the system, diagnoses and treats more than 6,000 new cancer cases annually across Olympia, Spokane, Tacoma, and Yakima, and is projected to double in volume over the next five years — indicating significant growth and potential career advancement opportunities. The organization places a strong emphasis on workforce diversity, belonging, and health equity, with initiatives dating back to 2015 through its Center for Health Equity and Wellness. However, limited available review data suggests that while management and culture receive positive marks, pay and benefits may be a concern for some employees.

MultiCare is dedicated to the health and wellness of the people of the Pacific Northwest, guided by a mission to serve communities across the region. The organization is committed to building and sustaining a culture of belonging — an environment where all people feel valued and welcome. MultiCare believes everyone should have the opportunity to live a healthy and fulfilling personal and professional life, demanding access to care and work environments free from racism, injustice, discrimination, and violence. The organization integrates belonging and equity principles into all aspects of its operations, with programs including culturally informed care series and sexual orientation, gender identity, and pronouns data collection.
