Certified Great Place to Work

Great Place to Work Institute has honored St. Monica’s Senior Living with certification as a Great Place to Work for 2021 - 2022. The certification process considered close to 100 employee surveys from across the St. Monica’s campus. Great Place to Work, an independent research and consulting firm, evaluated more than 60 elements of team members’ experience on the job. These included employee pride in the organization’s community impact, belief that their work makes a difference, and feeling their work has special meaning. Rankings are based on employees’ experiences, no matter who they are or what they do.
 

“Our employees are the heart of our home just like those that live here.” said Stephany Lichter, St. Monica’s Administrator, “Our leaders try to stay connected with their team members to find out what is working well and what isn’t. We want to know what systems or processes need improvement and love to hear what they are most proud of. The fact that 96% of the employees said that their work is not just a job, but has special meaning, is a true representation of the people that work here.”
 

Over 74 percent of St. Monica’s Senior Living employees completed the program's signature Trust Index© Survey that covered a variety of workplace quality experiences, including employee pride in the organization's community impact, belief that their work makes a difference, and feeling their work has special meaning. Highlights from the survey include:

·         96 percent believe their work has special meaning and is not "just a job."
·         90 percent feel a sense of pride when they look at what St. Monica’s has accomplished.
·         88 percent are proud to tell others they work for St. Monica’s.
·         78% of employees at St. Monica's Senior Living say it is a great place to work compared to 59% of employees at a typical U.S.-based company.

“We applaud St. Monica’s Senior Living for seeking certification and releasing its employees’ feedback,” said Dr. Jacquelyn Kung, of Great Place to Work’s senior care affiliate Activated Insights. “These ratings measure its capacity to earn its own employees’ trust and create a great workplace for high performance.”
