Shore Medical Center Extends Support and Career Opportunities to Displaced Spirit Airlines Employees

Somers Point, N.J. (May 3, 2026) — Shore Medical Center is extending its support to employees affected by recent job losses at Spirit Airlines, a change that has significantly impacted workers connected to operations at Atlantic City International Airport and the surrounding region.

“On behalf of everyone at Shore Medical Center, and as a loyal customer, I want to thank Spirit Airlines employees for the dedication and care you’ve shown travelers over the years,” said David Hughes, Chief Executive Officer of Shore Medical Center. “We know how important Spirit has been to Atlantic City and this region, and this is difficult news for many hardworking people. Moments like this go beyond business — they affect people’s lives in very real ways, and we want employees to know they are valued and have support close to home.”

Shore Medical Center, recently named a Top Hospital in the nation by The Leapfrog Group, is encouraging displaced Spirit workers to explore a variety of open positions across various departments. The organization offers competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and a mission-driven environment focused on patient care and community service.

“While we will truly miss the presence and service of Spirit airlines, Shore Medical Center stands ready to support those affected. We’re always looking for people who care about others and want to make a difference,” Hughes added. “Many of these employees bring valuable experience in service, teamwork, and high-responsibility roles — skills that translate well in a healthcare setting. We’d welcome the opportunity to connect.”
