Priority Life Care Recognized as One of Fortune’s Best Workplaces in Aging Services for 2024

Fort Wayne, IN — September 12, 2024 — Priority Life Care is thrilled to announce that it has been recognized as one of Fortune’s Best Workplaces in Aging Services for 2024. This prestigious accolade is a testament to the company’s unwavering commitment to creating an exceptional work environment for its employees.

Having already been certified as a Great Place to Work, this new recognition underscores Priority Life Care's dedication to fostering a workplace culture that values trust, respect, and employee satisfaction. The accolade was awarded based on responses from their annual employee survey, conducted by the third-party organization Home Care Pulse, which specializes in gathering and analyzing employee feedback in the aging services sector.

"We are incredibly honored to be recognized by Fortune as one of the Best Workplaces in Aging Services," said Sevy Petras, CEO and founder of Priority Life Care. "This achievement reflects the hard work and dedication of our entire team, who strive every day to make Priority Life Care a place where employees feel valued and empowered."

Priority Life Care operates over 70 communities across the Midwest, Northeast, and Southeast U.S., with a mission centered on supporting independence and promoting dignity, compassion, and respect for both residents and coworkers. The company emphasizes healthy choices and an active lifestyle, ensuring that residents can enjoy their retirement to the fullest.

This recognition follows Priority Life Care's recent Great Place to Work certification for the May 2023-May 2024 cycle, marking the second consecutive year the company has earned this honor. More than 90% of employees participated in the survey, with nearly 80% affirming it as a Great Place to Work.

The accolade from Fortune is not just a recognition of past achievements but a motivation to continue enhancing the employee experience. Priority Life Care remains committed to listening to its employees and providing the tools, training, and support necessary to maintain a high-performance workplace.

My mom and stepdad joined the Colonial Courtyard family in May 2025, it was a difficult decision but after these months it has be proven to be the right and best thing for mom and dad! The transition was a little bumpy, but it is with all of us, as we’re creatures of habit, but with the caring staff, the warm and comforting environment, everyone is happily adjusted now. If the reader has family who are in need of a little help and a caring watchful eye, please consider a visit and talking with the staff. From my experience, you’ll be glad you did.

I highly recommend Colonial Courtyard at Bedford! They're consistently supportive of the people within their care, just like you'd want them to be treating you, your family member or a friend. I haven't encountered a staff member who wasnt friendly. They're always finding ways to keep the group in great spirits and giving them life experiences they most likely wouldn't have anywhere else. They're truly living life to the fullest here at Colonial Courtyard at Bedford.
