Locally, the community is served by Juniper Village at Mount Joy. The Best Workplaces in Aging Services award is based on analysis of survey responses from more than 220,000 current employees across Great Place to Work-Certified™ organizations.

“I am particularly proud of this in light of our last 18 months working together to put the pandemic and its wrath behind us. Our people are truly what make us great,” expressed Lynne S. Katzmann, Founder and CEO, Juniper Communities. “The fact that we have our associates’ trust during these most difficult times supports the value of the culture we have built over the last 30 years. Our associates make Juniper a truly vital and special place for every stakeholder – their teams, residents, and their families. We celebrate and thank them for all they do.”

One review of the culture at Juniper was, “All coworkers are very encouraging. Even when things go wrong, they’re sure to encourage you to keep pushing and help you make it through the day!”

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.”

Juniper Communities has been selected as a Great Place to Work in 2018, 2019 and 2020. In

2020, Juniper was also recognized for a culture of innovation with the Argentum Best of the

Best award for Perennial Players, and the McKnight’s Excellence in Technology award for Virtual Connections.
