Benefits
Franciscan Children’s has designed the employee benefits program to adjust and grow with you, depending on your individual benefit needs and resources. Our benefits program was designed to keep both your wellness and finances in mind. Employees considered full-time or part-time are eligible for benefits. Some of our benefit plans are provided at no cost to you, while others are voluntary and require you to contribute a portion of the cost at a discounted group rate.
