We're proud to share the exciting news that The Bristal Assisted Living and our sister communities - 305 West End Assisted Living and Encore Luxury Living - have officially been designated as Great Place To Work® Certified™!
At The Bristal communities, we believe that a vibrant, compassionate workplace leads directly to exceptional care and meaningful connections with our residents. This certification is a powerful affirmation of our commitment to building a team culture rooted in respect, purpose, and shared values.
What does it mean to be designated a Great Place To Work?
Great Place To Work Certification is widely regarded as the global benchmark for identifying exceptional workplace culture.
"Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience," says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. "By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that The Bristal stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees."
Simply put, it means our team members - across all of the senior living communities managed by Ultimate Care Management - report feeling welcome, supported, and inspired. Based entirely on confidential team member feedback, this recognition captures what it's really like to work here, from trust in leadership to opportunities for growth.
Highlights from this year's survey speaks volumes:
- 86% of team members say their work has special meaning
- 87% feel that everyone who joins the team is made to feel welcome
- 86% take personal pride in the company's accomplishments
- 85% of team members believe that they make a difference
And the most commonly used words in team member survey comments? Residents. People. Team. Love.
That truly says it all.
The honor doesn't just reflect where we are an organization - it helps guide where we're going. By nurturing a positive and engaging environment for our team, we clarify our vision: to redefine what assisted living can be through excellence, integrity, collaboration, enthusiasm, and respect.
"This certification is a reflection of the passion and dedication our team brings to their communities each and every day," said Amy Silva-Magalhaes, Chief Operating Officer of The Bristal Assisted Living. "We're so proud of the culture we've built - one where people feel supported, valued, and connected to a shared purpose. It truly allows us to delivery extraordinary and purposeful experiences for our residents and their families."
