Community

Tacoma, locally referred to as 'T-Town', is a mid-sized urban port city and the seat of Pierce County.

The city is on Washington's Puget Sound, 32 miles southwest of Seattle, 31 miles northeast of Olympia, and 58 miles northwest of Mt. Rainier National Park.

With a population of 198,397, Tacoma is the second-largest city in the Puget Sound area and the third-largest in the state.

Tacoma is home to a vibrant, creative community of writers, artists, and musicians, photographers, filmmakers, passionate entrepreneurs, and small business owners.

It also serves as a base for large companies like State Farm, BNY Mellon, Columbia Bank, and Key Bank.

Drawing families to its charming neighborhoods with big city amenities, true urbanites are drawn to downtown Tacoma for its competitively priced living spaces with sweeping mountain, city, and water views.

We are dedicated to building lifetime relationships with peers and patients in Washington State's richly diverse communities.

Many know the Pacific Northwest as an attractive tourist destination with beautiful scenery, friendly people, and a host of cultural and recreational opportunities.

These elements, and others, make Washington an excellent place to live.

In our local communities and across the nation, Kaiser Permanente sets the standard for respectful care.

With multicultural staff, equity, inclusion, and diversity councils, medical interpretation resources, outreach efforts, educational programs, and more, Kaiser Permanente puts people first in our medical centers and beyond.

  • Provide culturally responsive and appropriate medical care to improve the health and satisfaction of all people in our increasingly diverse membership.
  • Recruit and retain clinicians and staff that enhance our workforce.
  • Grow our membership by providing exceptional service and clinical care to all communities in our region.

Creating a diverse workforce, an inclusive environment, and equitable opportunity for employment, growth, and advancement are deeply linked to our mission, our business, and our economic future.

WPMG continues to add programs that build and maintain a workplace where we engage with our members, communities, and each other-with dignity, respect, and cultural understanding.
