On Jan. 18, Philadelphia-based Temple University Hospital will hold an employee recognition ceremony to kick off its 125th anniversary celebrations.
Employees who have spent 20 years or more at TUH will be honored during the ceremony. It will begin 4:00 p.m. ET, and can be viewed live on Facebook.
The event is the first of many TUH will hold throughout the winter and spring to commemorate its 125 years of service. Founded in 1892 as Samaritan Hospital, TUH currently employs approximately 4,000 individuals.
"For 125 years, TUH has been combining life-changing healthcare delivery with its proud tradition of community commitment," said Larry Kaiser, MD, senior executive vice president and CEO of Philadelphia-based Temple University Health System. "Our commitment to providing some of the most sophisticated medical interventions in the world has attracted patients from the region and beyond for 125 years and counting."
