BLOOMFIELD, NEW JERSEY, UNITED STATES, September 13, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ -- Great Place to Work^® and Fortune magazine announced today that Juniper Communities has again been recognized as one of the Top 25 Best Workplaces in Aging Services for 2023 in the Senior Housing and Care category.

Katzmann, Founder and CEO, Juniper Communities. “In a challenging labor market, to be recognized as an employer highlighted for offering a workplace where the associates say their jobs have special meaning, they can make a difference, and have a sense of pride in their work, is gratifying as it says we are doing well by doing right.”
