So what makes Newport such a great place to work? Our mission to foster well-being and resilience applies to our employees as well as our clients. If you’re looking for a meaningful career that energizes you and allows you to make a real contribution to the world, consider these top 10 reasons to work at Newport Healthcare. 

Support a mission that’s making a difference. 

At Newport Healthcare, we’re addressing the most pressing issue of our time: the teen and young adult mental health crisis. There is no more important work to be doing right now, and no better place to be doing it. Whether you’re working in our kitchens, in our classrooms, with our grounds crew, or on our clinical or medical teams, you’ll be helping to create healing and transformation for young people and families. And you’ll end each day knowing that your work has made a positive impact on someone’s life.

Work for the industry leader.

At Newport, you’ll be part of a team that’s providing the highest-quality treatment. Our industry-leading programs have received the Gold Seal of Approval® accreditation from the Joint Commission for Behavioral Health Care, the nation’s oldest and largest healthcare accreditation body. In addition, we are one of the few treatment programs that conducts ongoing third-party research on the results of our clinical model. Our outcomes data, collected and analyzed in partnership with Drexel University, shows significant improvement in our patients’ levels of depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation, and well-being.

Get the benefits you deserve.

Newport Healthcare offers industry-competitive salaries and exemplary benefits, including:

  • Comprehensive health plans
  • Matching 401K
  • Wellness benefits
  • Employee appreciation programs
  • Student loan repayment
  • Tuition reimbursement
  • Generous parental and family leave.

Grow your skills.

Providing effective, compassionate, outcomes-based care for our clients goes hand in hand with empowering our employees and ensuring that they grow in their expertise and professionalism. We offer continuing education, student loan repayment, and tuition reimbursement for all employees, and specialized training for clinicians in DBT, EMDR, Attachment-Based Family Therapy, and more.

Collaborate with a closely bonded team. 

At each of our nationwide locations, the team maintains close communication, with daily huddles, all-staff meetings, and regular staff trainings, as well as holiday parties and other social get-togethers to help us stay connected. Moreover, because our integrated care teams are multidisciplinary, all roles work together—including direct care staff, nurses, psychiatrists, dieticians, clinical outreach specialists, therapists, teachers, chefs, and more. They’re not just passing each other in the hallways, they’re collaborating and innovating together to continually improve every aspect of our treatment. 

Access opportunities to advance your career.

We place great value on promoting from within our team whenever possible, and many of our entry-level staff are promoted within months or years of joining us. For example, many of our direct care staff go on to become counselors or leaders within our operations teams. We also offer flexibility between locations, so a staff member might be promoted to an open position at another facility, or can request a transfer to another campus. 

Spend your time somewhere beautiful. 

Our residential and outpatient programs around the country are located in spacious, comfortable homes and campuses in gorgeous natural settings, with amenities including on-site gardens, art and music studios, gyms, peaceful spaces for yoga and meditation, and academic classrooms and Learning Labs outfitted with the latest technology. We want our facilities to be places where people are happy to come to work, where it feels healing, comfortable, and beautiful for staff as well as clients.

Be part of a diverse and inclusive culture. 

As stewards of mental healthcare, it is our responsibility and privilege to foster a safe culture of diversity and inclusion, guided by awareness, education, and our core values of love, empathy, and connection. Together, we will continue to build an inclusive culture that encourages, supports, and celebrates the diverse and authentic voices of our employees, clients, families, and communities. 

Enhance your well-being.

There’s life at work and life outside of work. We want everyone to be healthy, have time to give back, and receive the support they need. Employees participate in self-care workshops, yoga classes, and team-building initiatives. Direct care staff often participate alongside clients in outdoor activities and Adventure Therapy sessions—hiking, taking surfing lessons, ziplining, mixed martial arts, and more. We know that working in the healthcare field is demanding, and that staff need to refill the well in order to be their best selves. 

Experience the rewards of helping to change lives.  

It’s incredibly rewarding to be able to support families in their time of need and create a sense of hope for them during their healing journey. Our staff are inspired every day by the transformations they witness in the teens, young adults, and families they serve. And the caring and compassion of our team make a lasting impact on our clients. “I will never forget the relationships I built at Newport,” says alum Grace S. “The staff pushed me to grow in ways I never thought I would.”
