Vinmec is renowned as one of the best workplaces in the healthcare sector.
What is special about Vietnam's best healthcare workplace? As the largest private healthcare system in Vietnam, Vinmec is well regarded for creating an attractive remuneration policy, offering a professional environment and, in particular, creating optimal conditions for its workforce to improve their professional skills. With these advantages, Vinmec is considered one of the best places to work in the healthcare sector today.
Opportunities for unparalleled professional development
After 7 years of operation, Vinmec has become one of the private healthcare systems that are highly trusted by patients, especially for cases requiring high quality of care and treatment, diseases requiring modern equipment, and close monitoring of progress. Vingroup has invested in Vinmec Healthcare System with modern infrastructure, the most advanced medical equipment, and a team of qualified doctors who are well-trained following the trends of modern medicine... What Vinmec currently has and is aiming for has really attracted the attention of experts and medical personnel. According to Ms. Le Thuy Anh, General Director of Vinmec Healthcare System, with a system of hospitals and specialized research institutes, Vinmec's doctors are given the opportunity to develop their expertises, conduct scientific research and participate in academic development activities throughout Vietnam and overseas. With that spirit, Vinmec Research Institute of Stem Cell and Gene Technologies started operating at the end of 2016 and so far has achieved many successes. “In the future, we will have a Research Institute of Cancer, Cardiovascular Diseases, and many more to research many challenging diseases, thereby providing Vietnamese people with more effective treatment methods, while contributing to the development of medicine,” Ms. Le Thuy Anh emphasized.
The highlight in the transformation to become a rigorous health system is Vinmec’s decision to build Centers of Excellence (COE) in cooperation with world’s top universities and hospitals. Through these global activities, Vinmec's doctors and nurses have had the opportunity to work and exchange professional knowledge regularly with experts from the University of Pennsylvania (one of the eight elite Ivy League universities in the US), ICON Group (Australia's largest cancer care provider), SANNO Hospital (one of the most advanced private hospitals in Japan)...
Moreover, VinUniversity - with the Health Sciences Department planning to enroll and train doctors, nurses and resident physicians from 2020 - will offer a favorable opportunity to combine the existing clinical practices and research with training and teaching at Vinmec. This is a special opportunity for medical staff to complete their academic degrees as well as their unlimited career development path.
The hospital - university model of Vinmec is built following the standards of advanced medical systems in the world, training new generations of doctors and nurses and supplementing the Vietnamese healthcare system in the near future. Professor Glen N. Gaulton, Vice President and Director of Global Health, Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania and currently a member of the Interim Executive Board of the VinUniversity Project, emphasized, "The ideal medical training process must take place in a hospital seting, where students have the opportunity to interact with a variety of patients and different types of diseases. Therefore, the training model at Vinmec in the future can contribute to reforming the medical education system in Vietnam".
Attractive remuneration policy, professional working environment.
Vinmec has built a solid foundation for a safe environment for both patients and healthcare staff based on each member’s contribution. This is also Vinmec's effort to improve the quality of medical services and promote operational management according to the highest international standards.
A typical example is the contest “Vinmec Rising 2018: A new approach to enhance employee participation in creative, innovative and quality improvement”. This contest is the first comprehensive innovation initiative in the medical industry in Vietnam; mobilizing all Vinmec staff to participate in proposing and implementing innovation initiatives and improving service quality. Through the contest, doctors are reduced by 95% of administrative work to focus on their expertise and spend more time with patients, 100% of outpatient prescriptions are reviewed to ensure safe and effective use of drugs, 30% of the time to approach emergency patients with ambulances is reduced to increase the ability to successfully first-aid provision... The contest not only contributes to improving the patient experience, but also helps increase labor productivity and reduce operating costs at the hospital. At the 2019 Asian Hospital Management Conference, this competition helped Vinmec be honored as “The Most Advanced Hospital in Vietnam”.
Ms. Le Bao Thoa - Director of Human Resources and Training of Vinmec Healthcare System emphasized: “People are the key factor for all the success of Vinmec. Therefore, we always focus on investing in the quality of workforce, attracting and developing an excellent team of staff. At the same time, Vinmec creates a dynamic, professional and humane working environment - where each individual is given the best conditions to develop their full potential, gradually integrating and absorbing the world's medical quintessence”.
Beyond the outstanding opportunities to study and develop expertise, Vinmec's competitive salaries, bonuses, perks and benefits are also considered very attractive by candidates.
Every Vinmec employee, from the executive leadership to each medical staff and non-clinical staff, has been and is continuously making a commitment to building a non-profit healthcare system, providing Vietnamese people with the best healthcare services. Such efforts have rewarded Vinmec with the recognition as the leading healthcare facility in the 100 Best Places to Work poll - a survey conducted by Anphabe and Intage Market Research Company in 2019.
With 7 hospitals and 5 international clinics across the country and a team of more than 600 doctors, more than 1,500 nurses, and nearly 150 pharmacists, Vinmec is currently the largest private healthcare system in Vietnam.
Each year, Vinmec serves more than 700,000 customers, mastering many complex techniques in the fields of cardiology and oncology such as ESP (erector spinae plane - spinal anesthesia for painless open heart surgery), LVAD (ventricular assist artificial heart implantation); TAVI (catheter-based cardiovascular intervention); immunotherapy in multimodal cancer treatment,... Vinmec has also become a phenomenon when it pioneered the field of gene and stem cell research to treat many hard-to-treat diseases such as cerebral palsy, autism, congenital biliary atresia, pulmonary fibrosis in infants...
