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.
Pauline Collier has worked in housekeeping at Mill Lane for 28 years and was nominated as a hero for her continuous commitment to the home and team.
She is described as a ‘great asset’ to the home and someone who always has time to stop and speak to residents no matter how busy she may be.
Pauline has adapted to many changes over the years, and yet remains totally focused on ensuring that our residents’ home is always clean, safe and homely.
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 Pauline is one of those heroes.”
