Caring Communities is extremely proud to be able to sponsor The Home Care Worker award this year.

We believe this is one of the most important roles in the care industry and that anyone consistently providing high quality standards, for people living in their own homes should be recognised.  So, we’re here to make sure Home Care Workers are given the professional respect they deserve.

Home Care Workers are a vital part of the multidisciplinary approach to holistic care – without them the care industry would struggle to operate.  We’re aware of the unique personalities and skills sets that a successful Home Care Worker must have and would like to say thank you to all of you that go out in all weathers and around the clock, delivering person-centred care to those who need it.

From our experience the best Home Care Workers will be:

  • Empathetic and compassionate
  • Committed and loyal
  • Experienced communicators, able to listen and non-judgemental
  • Excellent time keepers
  • Respectful, treating the people they care for with dignity and the same standards they would expect for themselves and others.

All the Home Care Workers nominated for this category will have gone the extra mile and we would like to say thank you, as it is you who make such a positive difference to so many people’s lives, every day.
