About Tatnuck Park of Worcester, a Benchmark Senior Living Community
Founded in 1997 by Tom Grape, Benchmark operates 56 senior living communities offering independent living, assisted living, Alzheimer’s care and continuing care in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont. With over 6,000 associates, Benchmark has been recognized as a top workplace by The Boston Globe for 10 consecutive years as well as by the Boston Business Journal, Connecticut Post, Hartford Courant and Hartford Business Journal. Benchmark recently received certification as a Great Place to Work and special distinction as a Certified Age Friendly Employer for 2018. The Great Place to Work honor followed strong participation and results from Benchmark’s annual associate survey. Nearly 80% of our amazing associates throughout our communities and the home office completed the survey! As a result of this certification, Benchmark also qualifies for consideration in the first Fortune Magazine Great Places to Work in Aging Services list. The list will be announced later this year. Benchmark earned the age friendly certification from RetirementJobs.com due to our commitment to hiring workers over age 50. Criteria includes a thorough evaluation of our response to Certification Evaluation Standards, a review of publicly available information and comparison with standards for policies and practices within general commerce and the health care industry. Benchmark is only the fifth Massachusetts-based company to receive this certification from RetirementJobs.com, joining Fidelity Investments, Fresenius Medical Care North America, Massachusetts General Hospital and Staples. At our core, we believe in the power of human connection to transform lives. At Benchmark, we see a world in which every person feels meaningfully connected to what and who matters most throughout their lives. Our mission is to deeply understand people, meet them where they are, and connect them to what’s meaningful and possible at every stage of life.
