The American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC) Magnet Recognition Program® is the most prestigious designation a hospital can earn. Magnet recognition demonstrates that Lehigh Valley Health Network (LVHN) supports professional nurses to be their best. Our nurses are leaders who are empowered to grow in their profession and help shape the future of patient care while providing compassionate, evidenced-based care.

LVHN locations in the Lehigh Valley (Lehigh Valley Hospital (LVH)–Cedar Crest, including Lehigh Valley Reilly Children’s HospitalLVH–MuhlenbergLVH–17th Street, LVH–Heckown Oaks, LVH–CarbonLVHN–TilghmanLVHN–1503 N.
