Senior Star Third on Fortune's 50 Best Workplaces/Aging Services

Senior Star announced its rank as number three on Fortune magazine’s first-ever list of 50 Best Workplaces for Aging Services.

“Landing in the number three spot on Fortune’s list serves as a poignant moment for our company,” said Anja Rogers, Senior Star CEO. “It’s a heartwarming expression of the way associates who choose to unite and serve with Senior Star feel about coming to work every day. This recognition is also a great reminder of Senior Star’s long-held belief that we must excel in keeping our culture alive as we grow.”

Locally, Senior Star at Weber Place is one of 14 retirement communities nationwide operated by the Tulsa-based Senior Star, which employs nearly 1,300 people. To qualify for Fortune’s Best Workplaces for Aging Services list, the company first earned certification as a Great Place to Work in June 2018. That certification process included a survey open to all Senior Star associates that queried employee engagement.

“Fortune’s decision to put out this first-ever list for our industry creates substantial awareness of senior living as a viable career choice, and, as a provider, I see a great opportunity to help pave a pathway to make this happen,” Rogers said. “Our company is also expanding with more locations that will open opportunities for hiring additional dynamic people.”

Industry estimates predict senior care will need one million plus more CNA/aides from now through the year 2025. “The headlines regarding worker shortages on the care side might seem daunting to senior living providers vying for top-notch employees, but hope to instill eye-opening moments in the minds of millennials who are searching for work with purpose.”
