Brightview Senior Living Recognized Among 2025 PEOPLE Companies That Care

Brightview Senior Living has been honored as one of the 2025 PEOPLE Companies that Care by Great Place To Work and PEOPLE magazine, marking its third appearance on this prestigious list and climbing to No. 77 from its previous ranking of 81. This recognition is based on rigorous benchmarks and over 1.3 million employee survey responses, representing the experiences of more than 8.4 million employees, with more than 1 million responses specifically from companies eligible for this year's list. The selection process involves comprehensive employee feedback and validated essays that detail how organizations care for their employees, communities, and the environment, requiring companies to be Great Place To Work Certified with at least 10 U.S. employees.

Doug Dollenberg, President & CEO of Brightview Senior Living, emphasized that this award reflects the extraordinary commitment of their associates in fostering a culture of warmth, hospitality, respect, and belonging for both employees and residents. He stated, "Caring for people is at the heart of everything we do, and I am incredibly proud of the way our team lives out our mission each day." This accolade highlights Brightview's success in creating a supportive workplace, which is crucial in the senior living industry where employee satisfaction directly impacts resident care and overall community well-being.

The implications of this recognition extend beyond internal morale, as it reinforces Brightview's reputation as a leader in aging services, potentially attracting top talent and boosting consumer confidence. Michael C. Bush, CEO of Great Place To Work, noted, "Businesses are vital pillars in the communities where they operate. Caring for your people and your community isn’t something you do after you build a successful business; it’s how to make your business successful." This philosophy underscores the importance of ethical business practices in achieving long-term success and community trust.

Charlotte Triggs, PEOPLE GM and editor-in-chief, added, "Witnessing the innovative spirit with which these companies invest in their employees, communities, and the world is truly invigorating. Their commitment reflects our mission, to feature what happens when ordinary people do extraordinary work." Brightview's achievement is part of a series of recent accolades, including being named to the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For in 2025 and receiving recognition from U.S. News and World Report for Best Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Memory Care.
