Fulfillment, Growth, and Making a Meaningful Difference
Why do we love working at Carlton? It’s more than just a job—it’s a place where many of us have found fulfillment, growth, and the chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of seniors.
Dedicated Employees: The Heart of Our Communities
One of the things that truly sets Carlton Senior Living apart is our incredible company culture. Our culture is built on the Carlton Commitments: Love, Honor, and Provide. Our staff members are the heart of our communities, and they are our biggest asset.
Just imagine this—dozens of our team members have been with the company for over 20 years! And that’s not all—over 300 of us have been part of the Carlton family for six years or more.
It’s like having an extended family where we work together, support each other, and make a difference in the lives of our residents. Our staff members’ dedication and longevity are a testament to the positive and nurturing culture we’ve built at Carlton. It’s what makes coming to work every day so special and satisfying.
Promoting from Within: A Path to Success
Three out of four of our managers started on the front lines. We believe in nurturing our talents and providing opportunities for growth. It’s not just about putting in the hours; it’s about recognizing potential and rewarding hard work. By promoting from within, we create leaders who truly understand our values, culture, and the needs of our residents. It’s a testament to the supportive environment we have here.
Unlocking Potential through Professional Development
Carlton offers comprehensive training and resources to help us excel in our roles and advance in our careers through Carlton University. We host live, in-person monthly training for all employees that are engaging and interactive, led by our very own Carlton University Instructors. Managers and Supervisors also attend School of Management and can apply to the Leadership Development Program if they seek more opportunities to learn and grow. Carlton invests in employees by helping us develop our own personal path to success.
Embracing Equality
President Dave Coluzzi says it best: At Carlton, we are all equal, we just have different responsibilities. It doesn’t matter if you’re a manager, line staff, or executive—we’re all respected and valued. We work together as a team, supporting one another and collaborating to deliver the best care possible.
The Second Paycheck: Making a Difference in Seniors’ Lives
When asked why we love working at Carlton, many of us will say it’s the feeling of making a real impact in the lives of seniors. We call it the “second paycheck.” Sure, we get paid for our work, but the true reward is the fulfillment we get from knowing we’re enhancing the quality of life for our residents. It’s the smiles, the gratitude, and the knowledge that we’re positively shaping someone’s day. It’s why many of our staff members have chosen to work at Carlton over other industries.
A Truly Great Place to Work

Through input from our staff, Carlton Senior Living has been certified once again as a Great Place to Work. This consistent recognition of our commitment to creating an exceptional work environment is a testament to Carlton’s unwavering dedication to our satisfaction, growth, and well-being. We take pride in fostering an extraordinary employee experience. But don’t just take our word for it – let our dedicated team members do the talking!
