Scottish Care Awards 2019 – tell us what good home care has meant for you

Scottish Care Awards 2019 – tell us what good home care has meant for you

In 2017, Scottish Care launched this lovely film – created by Michael Rea – showcasing what good care means from the perspective of those working in and being supported by services who were finalists in Scottish Care’s Care at Home & Housing Support Awards.

The Awards are a fantastic opportunity to highlight all that is fantastic about the support provided through care at home and housing support services – even though most people think they are just doing their job!

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to celebrate your colleague, service or client by submitting a nomination in the 2019 Awards.  As a sector, we need to get better at showing people what good care really means and the difference it makes.

Nominations are open until the end of February.  Find out more here:  http://www.scottishcare.org/care-at-home-housing-support-awards-2019/
