Creating a Thriving Workplace Culture

In today’s fast-paced world of healthcare, we realize the importance of creating a positive workplace culture. Here at University Senior Living, we understand to achieve this culture, employees must trust their workplace.

Each August, University Senior Living participates in the Great Place to Work Survey. This is a time where staff can be open and honest about their feedback. The data is collected by a third party, so it truly is anonymous. It is so important for us to hear the good, the bad, and the ugly to know what we can work on to truly make our community a great place to work.

As the Executive Director, I actively promote employee appreciation. I make it a priority to recognize our hard-working team members. We offer daily snacks on the go for each shift, along with a freshly prepared meal by our talented chefs. Every week, we celebrate with a themed event that includes a giveaway or treat bag. My goal is to ensure every team member feels valued and appreciated as an integral part of our team.

We believe when done right, making work a fun place creates a workplace culture that helps people thrive, promotes retention, and makes us a great place to work, which in turn makes us a great place to live.
