Great Place to Work® and Fortune magazine have honored Silver Maples of Chelsea Retirement Neighborhood as one of the 2021 Best Workplaces in Aging Services™. This is Silver Maples’ first time being named to this prestigious list, coming in at 17th place under the small to medium senior housing category. Earning a spot on this list means that Silver Maples of Chelsea is one of the best companies to work for in the country.
The Best Workplaces in Aging Services award is based on analysis of survey responses from more than 220,000 current employees. In that survey, 88% of Silver Maples of Chelsea’s employees said Silver Maples is a great place to work. This number is 29% higher than the average U.S. company.
“This recognition by Fortune magazine is another opportunity to thank our staff for their commitment to excellence,” shares Julie Deppner, Executive Director/CEO “Having highly engaged employees has allowed us to continue to provide a positive and safe aging experience for our residents during the COVID pandemic. I am so proud of the work we have done to create a vibrant culture for both our employees and our residents!” JoAnne Reynolds, Director of Human Resources said, “Creating and sustaining an engaged workforce is something we work on every single day! We value the input our employees give on these surveys and use the results to create work plans and goals to improve our employee experience and workplace culture. This national award is yet another reason to celebrate and acknowledge what an outstanding, engaged team we have working at Silver Maples!”
The Best Workplaces in Aging Services list is highly competitive. Great Place to Work, the global authority on workplace culture, selected the list using rigorous analytics and confidential employee feedback. Companies were only considered if they are a Great Place to Work-Certified organization.
Great Place to Work is the only company culture award in America that selects winners based on how fairly employees are treated. Companies are assessed on how well they are creating a great employee experience that cuts across race, gender, age, disability status, or any aspect of who employees are or what their role is.
“We are incredibly proud of The Best Workplaces for Aging Services. They fought bravely and saved countless lives during the COVID-19 pandemic,” says Dr. Jacquelyn Kung, CEO of Activated Insights, the partner of Great Place to Work in senior care. “Years of research has shown how great workplaces contribute to lower employee turnover and better quality of life for seniors. These honored workplaces showcase the compassion and stories behind the research. Our biggest congratulations and appreciation go to these awardees.”
