Kaiser Permanente Medical Center and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles have both been nominated for a nationwide “Most Beautiful Hospital” award. The public can vote on nominees they deem the most beautiful until July 25.

With a strong emphasis on preventive care and innovative treatment options, Kaiser Permanente Los Angeles Medical Center consistently strives to improve patient outcomes and enhance overall community health. The unique needs of patients are met through the offering of a full spectrum of healthcare services, including surgical procedures and specialized treatments to routine wellness checkups.

Additionally, Cedars-Sinai Medical Center is one of the top-ranked hospitals in the United States. The hospital is known for its exceptional patient care, cutting-edge research and innovative treatments with offerings across 11 medical specialties – including cardiology, gastroenterology, orthopedics and neurology. The medical center has been named in the U.S. News & World Report’s “Best Hospitals” Honor Roll for eight consecutive years, ranking second in the nation and first in California in 2022-23.

The “20 Most Beautiful Hospitals” contest, sponsored by top national healthcare staffing firm Soliant, recognizes hospitals for their commitment to developing and improving their campuses, facilities and staff, thereby creating holistic and healing environments. Soliant will donate $5,000 to the winning hospital’s foundation.

“Hospital beauty is more than just its physical design and appearance – it is the healthcare staff who create the heart and soul of the hospital through genuine connections with patients,” Soliant CEO David Alexander said. “This is a wonderful opportunity to showcase hospitals for their nurturing staff, comforting aesthetics and innovative designs which contribute to the overall well-being of patients.”

More than 200 outstanding hospitals have been recognized since Soliant began the program in 2009. The annual contest seeks to discover hospitals in the U.S. that are not only beautiful but have unique designs, landscapes and elements.

Participants may cast multiple votes until the polls close on July 25. The winner of this year’s contest, along with the top 20 hospitals, will be announced on July 31. To follow along and vote, visit soliant.com/most-beautiful-hospital-contest.
