Stars Awards

Care South celebrated the outstanding achievements of its staff at its annual Stars Awards ceremony on Thursday 13th July at AFC Bournemouth’s Vitality Stadium.

Now in its 14th year, the Stars Awards recognise and reward individuals and teams from across the company for their outstanding achievements and excellent care provision. They are an important event during which time is taken to celebrate care staff and thank them for their frontline duties and commitment to residents. Nominees are put forward by colleagues, residents and relatives. Awards on the day included Care Home of the Year won by Wickmeads and Care South at Home Office of the Year won by Crewkerne. The ceremony was held at AFC Bournemouth’s Vitality Stadium with Care South’s Chairman, Chris Kean and Chief Executive, Simon Bird hosting care homes and Care South at Home offices who had been named as finalists.

All Care South care homes enjoy some friendly competition and there must be a winner, but it was not an easy decision for judges as the high-quality of care and feedback consistently received from residents and relatives across the whole Care South group is second to none.
