Cornerstone Family Healthcare Named One of the 2026 Best Companies to Work for in New York
NEWBURGH, NY — Cornerstone Family Healthcare has been named one of the 2026 Best Companies to Work for in New York, an annual recognition that honors employers across the state for outstanding workplace practices, employee engagement, and organizational culture.
Cornerstone was recognized in the Large Companies category, which includes organizations with 250 or more U.S. employees. The Best Companies to Work for in New York program is a partnership of the New York State Council of the Society for Human Resource Management, Best Companies Group, BridgeTower Media, and the Rochester Business Journal.
“This recognition is a reflection of the remarkable people who make Cornerstone Family Healthcare what it is,” said David Jolly, President & Chief Executive Officer of Cornerstone Family Healthcare. “Our team brings compassion, professionalism, and purpose to their work every day. We are proud to foster a workplace culture rooted in mission, collaboration, and a shared commitment to caring for our patients and communities.”
For Cornerstone Family Healthcare, this recognition underscores the organization’s belief that investing in employees is essential to delivering high-quality, accessible care. As a community health center serving the Hudson Valley, Cornerstone remains committed to creating an environment where staff feel valued, supported, and empowered to make a meaningful difference.
The 2026 Best Companies to Work for in New York program is designed to identify, recognize, and honor the state’s best employers. Companies are evaluated through a two-part process that includes an assessment of workplace policies, practices, and demographics, along with an employee survey measuring the overall employee experience. Together, those components provide a fuller picture of organizational culture and employee satisfaction.
“The 2026 Best Companies to Work for in New York know that the people in their organizations are the key to their success. These businesses realize what it takes to create an environment that results in teamwork and excellence, which in turn provides a quality service or product,” said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, managing director of BridgeTower Media/Rochester Business Journal. “Rochester Business Journal is pleased to join the New York State Council of the Society for Human Resource Management, Best Companies Group and BridgeTower Media in honoring these outstanding businesses.”
The 2026 Best Companies to Work for in New York honorees will be recognized at an awards celebration on April 21, 2026, at the Marriott Albany in Albany, New York, where final rankings will be announced.
