A CARE home manager has won an award for his ‘great work’ with residents day-in day-out.
Jason Parkinson, manager of HC-One’s St Clare’s Court Care Home, in Newton Aycliffe, received one of the company's Kindness in Care Award.
Mr Parkinson was nominated for the award by a colleague who highlighted his ‘kind, caring and professional’ approach. He was described as ‘an exceptional manager who goes above and beyond’, and someone who is ‘always willing to listen’.
Mr Parkinson, presented with his award by HC-One area quality director Mandy Falconer, said: “I am delighted and humbled to have received this award. Every day we at St Clare’s Court strive to provide the kindest care to residents, and it is a pleasure to be a part of such a dedicated team.”
HC-One managing director Stephen Butterworth said the awards recognise the kindest care and best practice and St Clare's Court has a manager who deliver both.
