Celebrating Our Carers of the Year 2025

Caremark North Hertfordshire and Stevenage proudly honors our Carers of the Year 2025. We also honor every finalist who epitomizes kindness, professionalism, and unwavering dedication. These awards spotlight the everyday moments that profoundly impact home life: a calming voice, a reassuring smile, and the consistent support. This support allows individuals to live safely and happily in familiar surroundings.

By recognising devoted carers, we celebrate the essential human touch at the heart of our work. It’s a chance to express our gratitude. Thank you for noticing the small details, for upholding dignity, and for being there regardless of the weather. This year’s recognition is part of our premier caregiver recognition program. It is designed to showcase exemplary care and share insights across our teams.

Honoring Exceptional Caregivers

Our winners and finalists for Carers of the Year consistently excel. For example, a Senior Care Assistant crafted personalised morning routines to ease anxiety for those with dementia. Meanwhile, a Care Coordinator adjusted visit times to foster continuity and trust.

Feedback from customers reveals increased confidence, improved medication management, and enjoyment from meaningful conversations and companionship. Families appreciate the peace of mind knowing their loved ones are supported by carers who promptly respond to changing needs. As one family member shared, “Mum now looks forward to her visits. Her carer not only completes tasks but also engages in conversation and encourages her to pursue her passions.”

• Person-centered care that maintains independence and choice
• Reliable, punctual visits fostering consistency and trust
• Warm companionship that alleviates loneliness
• Diligent monitoring and swift response to evolving needs

These stories illustrate why we proudly celebrate our Carers of the Year. They highlight the significance of our award in acknowledging our dedicated carers for exceptional caregiving to those we support. 

The Importance of Recognising Excellence

Acknowledging dedicated carers uplifts our entire community. Recognising our Carers of the Year affirms caregiving as a skilled profession and encourages continuous improvement. It helps us retain exceptional talent, inspires others, and reassures customers that Caremark values excellence, compassion, and accountability.
It also complements ongoing training, clear career pathways, and supportive supervision, ensuring the highest standard of home care.

Inside the Carer Awards

Our selection process is thorough and transparent, with nominations from customers, families, colleagues, and managers. It showcases outcomes, reliability, and genuine feedback. A panel reviews anonymized entries based on clear criteria. These include person-centered practice, safeguarding, teamwork, professional development, and innovation.

This year’s ceremony united carers, customers, and partners to share stories of quiet dedication. Heartfelt tributes, long-service milestones, and a standing ovation for our overall winner served as a reminder. It reminded us that great care is both skilled and deeply human.

Looking ahead, we plan to expand mentoring for new carers. Additionally, we will introduce micro-awards to spotlight daily excellence. Furthermore, we plan to launch a learning bursary for advanced training. These initiatives strengthen our commitment to exceptional caregiving and reflect our dedication to excellence.
