Healthcare Homes colleagues were delighted to get together at a company conference and awards last week to recognize staff and teams who work throughout our family of 48 homes and 11 homecare branches.
And whilst it was recognized that every health and social care employee is undoubtedly a hero, and every Healthcare Homes team was awarded an Inspirational Team of the Year Award, managers had also been asked to recommend individuals for the Hero Awards 2022.
Amanda Ashman, known as Mandy, from Bilney Hall in Norfolk, was one of 24 individuals honored with a Hero Award.
Mandy has worked for Healthcare Homes for over 10 years and her nomination described her as providing exemplary care for the residents in her care and being a great support for her colleagues.
“The night team feel that Mandy is like a ‘mother figure’ and they can go to her with any issues. Mandy always has a smile on her face, and has remained confident and 100% supportive to everyone over the last two difficult years.
“She is quite simply an inspiration to others,” it read.
Gordon Cochrane, chief executive officer, told the audience, “ I’m delighted to say that we were inundated with nominations for people that managers wanted to be recognized as absolute stars, the backbones of our homes and branches, the heroes we simply cannot do without and Mandy is one of those heroes.”
