Inspirational colleague wins prestigious award for her dedication to residents
Keshia McDonald, a Team Leader at Harden Hall care home won the national Dementia Carer Award on Friday 18 March. The accolade was presented at the Great British Care Awards (GBCA), which recognises excellence across the care sector.
The Great British Care Awards pays tribute to individuals who have gone the extra mile to help improve the lives of residents within their care. The National Final, held at the ICC in Birmingham, brought together the regional winners from nine regions across England to celebrate outstanding people who work in the care sector.
The panel of judges commented that Keshia showed incredible enthusiasm for her role at Harden Hall. They were impressed with her approach to caring for people with dementia and described her as a true advocate for the future of dementia care.
Rob Martin, Managing Director – Care Services said:
These are fantastic personal achievements and a reflection of the quality and dedication demonstrated by Keshia.
We’re very proud that they’ve been recognised nationally for their work and as an organisation we’re committed to providing high quality care and services to residents. Keshia truly represents our values of Accountability, Respect, Courage and Honesty.
Our insight and reputation is built on 50 years of experience in care and support for our residents, whatever their needs. We pride ourselves on providing exactly the right level of care and support, where and when it is required.
Keshia was also delighted with her win, saying:
It still hasn’t sunk in that I’ve won a national Great British Care Award! I’m glad I could do my colleagues and the West Midlands region proud.
My work is really important to me. I started as a volunteer at Harden Hall because I wanted to do my part and becoming a full time Team Leader was a special moment. This sort of recognition means so much to me and I’m really humbled by what the judges said about me and my dedication to the care sector!
