Right at Home Isle of Wight took home two highly sought-after awards, fending off competition from across the UK
Homecare provider Right at Home Isle of Wight is celebrating after picking up two prestigious awards at a national ceremony.
The business took home the Employer of the Year and Community Impact awards, after facing tough competition from other care providers located across the UK.
The 2023 Celebration Awards took place on Thursday, September 14 at a gala dinner held at St George’s Park in Burton upon Trent, with more than 150 people in attendance.
The awards recognise and celebrate the achievements of franchise offices and their teams from the Right at Home UK network.
Right at Home Isle of Wight, which was rated Outstanding by the Care Quality Commission last year, just 18 months after opening, provides care and support to people living in their own homes.
The provider was crowned the winner of the Employer of the Year award for growing and nurturing a team that feels respected, appreciated and proud to work for the business.
It is focussed on ensuring the wellbeing of its entire workforce and has introduced several initiatives to reward them for their hard work, including monthly loyalty vouchers, birthday gifts and yearly service awards.
Right at Home Isle of Wight owner Paul Butler said: “To win this award was the icing on the cake for the incredible year we’ve had. Since starting the business, we have really tried to celebrate our staff and all the amazing work they do through recognition. Without them, we would be nothing.”
There was another big win for Right at Home Isle of Wight this year, as the business picked up Right at Home’s prestigious Community Impact award for the second year in a row.
This accolade recognises the network’s franchise offices that have engaged with the community through events and activities, making a positive difference to local people.
Since launching their business in 2021, Vicky and Paul introduced a Dementia Afternoon Tea Club, which runs every second Thursday of the month, and an Older Person’s Good Living Show, which showcases a range of services that are available for older people in the Isle of Wight.
