Join the Lehigh Valley Health Network Team

Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) is comprised of 13 hospital campuses plus numerous health centers, physician practices, rehabilitation locations, ExpressCARE sites and other outpatient care locations in 10 eastern Pennsylvania counties. Our health care professionals provide amazing care every day.

At Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN), we continually go the extra mile to further our mission to heal, comfort and care for the people of our community. Each one of our 19,000 colleagues contributes to this mission and helps make all communities we serve healthier – and better – places to live.

Rooted in history
Our legacy of patient-centered care began with 13 compassionate, civic-minded women more than a century ago. Caring deeply about the health and well-being of their community, they raised $5,300 for a plot of land at 17th and Chew streets in Allentown, Pa., and in 1899, opened The Allentown Hospital. Their generous example was the first step in our health network’s journey.

In the late 1950s, with the area’s population booming, a group of Lutheran clergy purchased a 102-acre alfalfa field in Bethlehem and set out to build another hospital for the community. Muhlenberg Hospital Center opened its doors in 1961 as a 192-bed facility for the chronically ill.
Our flagship hospital was built in 1974 in Salisbury Township, Lehigh County, a suburban area adjacent to Allentown, Pa. It serves as the hub for many specialty services, including our highly regarded cancer center which was selected as the second member of the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Alliance in 2015 and Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s Hospital. Lehigh Valley-based nurses and hospitals have earned (and re-earned) Magnet® designation from the American Nurses Credentialing Center since 2002. Highlighted services at LVH–Cedar Crest:
