Central Florida Health, which also oversees Leesburg Regional Medical Center, was one of 25 businesses – and among the top four – recognized by the Orlando Business Journal in its 2019 Central Florida Healthiest Employers List.
The annual award program honors companies with policies and initiatives that promote health and well-being for employees.

Counties included in the awards program were Lake, Brevard, Orange, Osceola, Seminole and Volusia.
“We are honored to be recognized as one of the top four winners of the ‘Healthiest Employer 2019’ award,” said Juli Romero-Gomez, a registered nurse who serves as the healthcare provider’s ACC Wellness Program coordinator. “As we continue to grow a culture of wellness for our team members, we are excited to see the real-life impact of healthy living and the positive direction it takes our communities.”
