Maxim Healthcare Wins 2026 Great Place To Work Certification™

Maxim Healthcare (Maxim), a national provider of continuous skilled nursing services and personal and behavioral care, is proud to be Certified™ by Great Place To Work®. This prestigious award is based entirely on what current employees say about their experience working at Maxim. This year, 86% of employees said it’s a great place to work, compared to 57% of employees at an average U.S. company.

Great Place To Work® is the global authority on workplace culture, employee experience and the leadership behaviors proven to deliver market-leading revenue, employee retention and increased innovation.

“Great Place To Work Certification is a highly coveted achievement that requires consistent and intentional dedication to the overall employee experience,” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, the Vice President of Global Recognition at Great Place To Work. She emphasizes that Certification is the sole official recognition earned by the real-time feedback of employees regarding their company culture. “By successfully earning this recognition, it is evident that Maxim Healthcare stands out as one of the top companies to work for, providing a great workplace environment for its employees.”

“We are beyond thrilled to become Great Place To Work-Certified™ as we consider employee experience a top priority every day,” said President and CEO Jarrod DePriest. “We owe our continued success to our dedicated team members and caregivers at Maxim. We celebrate and thank them for all they do every day and are grateful to earn this incredible recognition.”

The culture at Maxim Healthcare is deeply rooted in compassion, integrity and a shared commitment to making a real difference in people’s lives. Led by senior leadership who share collectively 375 years of tenure at Maxim Healthcare, employees share a mission-driven mindset, whether their role is to provide care in the home, support patients and families, or work behind the scenes to make quality care possible.

Maxim’s collective culture and shared desire to serve prompted the company to create a Maxim Service Day. Since 2018, office team members can take time off work one day annually to participate in community service with any 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Employees can volunteer on their own, or in groups to give back to the communities Maxim proudly serves.

In 2024, Maxim launched an enhanced Caregivers Benefits Program, which provided more than $10 million dollars in added benefits for the company’s caregivers. Notable improvements included increases in paid time off, and the launch of a brand-new awards program, MaxCares. MaxCares is unique, offering caregivers the flexibility to tailor their rewards and encompasses cash bonuses or the option for additional paid time off. Additionally, Maxim celebrates their caregivers annually with a National Caregiver of the Year awards ceremony, recognizing the difference the company’s caregivers make in the lives of their patients. This year, Maxim will celebrate its 15th Caregiver of the Year awards ceremony on April 15, 2026, in Dallas, Texas.

According to Great Place To Work research, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and are twice as likely to be paid fairly, earn a fair share of the company’s profits and have a fair chance at promotion.
