Orchard Care Homes confirmed as finalist in industry awards
Orchard Care Homes, one of the UK’s leading providers of specialist residential, dementia, nursing and short-term respite care, has been confirmed as a finalist in this year’s LaingBuisson Awards, in the Residential Care (larger organisations) category.
The LaingBuisson Awards are the Oscars of Health and Social Care. Now in their 14th year of recognising excellence, they are judged independently and objectively and focus on the people providing care as well as advisors.
The judging rounds will take place from 2nd September until 27th September to allow the panel of judges’ time to scrutinise every finalist nomination carefully for each category, with the Awards ceremony taking place on Wednesday 13th November 2019 at Park Plaza Westminster Bridge, London.
A spokesperson from LaingBuisson said:
“This year has seen a record-breaking number of nominations for every single category, with over 400 entries in total. The competition was extremely tough, and decisions were very hard, but we are thrilled to announce the finalists and look forward to the Awards evening.”
Tom Brookes, CEO at Orchard Care Homes, was delighted to receive the news, saying:
“I am delighted for Orchard Care Homes to be shortlisted as one of the finalists. Over the past 12 months, we have invested heavily in providing a range of meaningful activities for our residents, in a warm and homely environment. In addition, we have provided training and career pathways for staff and introduced new technologies to ensure we provide the very best quality of care across all our homes. Our quality objectives for 2019/20 are designed to develop and promote the highest quality of care, which we believe is at the heart of everything we do.”
