Fortune releases 1st annual Best Workplaces in Aging Services ranking

Fortune, alongside research partner Great Place to Work, has released its first annual Best Workplaces in Aging Services list, a ranking that analyzed more than 162,000 employees across the outpatient and at-home sectors of senior care.

The inaugural list, likely launched as a response to the rapidly growing senior population in the U.S., divided services into senior housing and at-home care. The former list was topped with Gurwin Jewish Nursing & Rehabilitation Center & Gurwin Jewish in Commack, New York, a center that employs 936 staffers. Fortune’s No. 1 at-home service, Eagle Creek Therapy Services in Dallas, is much smaller, at 89 employees.

According to Great Place to Work’s site, Fortune derived its rankings from anonymous survey feedback representing more than 162,000 employees working in senior housing and hospice care in the U.S. 

“Just over 85 percent of our evaluation is based on what employees say about their experiences of trust and reaching their full human potential as part of their organization, no matter who they are or what they do,” the site reads. “We analyze these experiences relative to each organization's size, workforce makeup and what’s typical in their industry and region.”
