We wanted to let you know that HomeCareDirect have been shortlisted for the Excellent Person Centred Care and Support Category of the Norfolk Care Awards!
Out of over 100 applications we were in the top 3 which is wonderful and very flattering. We are going to see the panel on 17th December for a verification visit which will be a great opportunity for them to talk about all the great work that has been done in the area and our plans for the future. Also it’ll be great to share with everyone stories about all the clients we have been able to help in Norfolk to have full choice and control over their care at home.
The judging panel will then meet on the 18th December to make their final judgements and we should hear how we’ve done shortly after this.
There are 9 categories that organisations can be nominated for:
Excellent Person Centred Care and Support Category
Team Award – Together Everyone Achieved More
Delivering Excellence Through Learning and Development
Innovative Dementia Friendly Environment
Bringing People Together Through Activities
Motivational Leadership
Promoting Dignity and Respect in Every Day Life
Effective Coordination of End of Life Care
Outstanding Achievement
If we are successful and win this award in the Excellent Person Centred Care and Support Category there will be a presentation event on Thursday 13th February 2014 at Dunston Hall in Norfolk and a lovely award that we would be presented with. Even if we don’t win being shortlisted in the top 3 is a great honour and wonderful recognition of the great work that everyone at HomeCareDirect does, so let’s all keep our fingers crossed. We wish the best of luck to other providers and people who have been shortlisted for these awards.
You can see more about the awards on their website www.norfolkcareawards.co.uk.
We will keep you updated on how we do and if you’d like to know more please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
