In our December podcast we talk to the Care Home Awards organisers Matthew and Helen about their plans for the 2021 event.

Subject to any Covid-19 restrictions that might still be in place, the Awards will take place at lunchtime on 8 July 2021 in the Platinum Suite at ExCeL London, during the Health+Care Shows.

Care Home Management is the official media partner of the Care Home Awards.

The organisers are urging care homes to enter for 2021 to celebrate best practice, collaboration and great care during what has been a very difficult year for all.

Listen to find out about new categories, how to enter and why now more than ever we need to reward our fantastic sector.

Welcome to a very special Care Home Management magazine podcast as we celebrate the Care Home Awards. CHM is proud to be the official media partner for this great event and our journalists caught up with the winners, sponsors and organisers.  A must listen for anyone keen to share best practice. Care UK won a string of awards, including Best Care Home Group for providers with more than 50 homes. We talk to ceo Andrew Knight about the company’s fantastic ‘Fulfilling Lives’ approach to care. We also interview Rachel Beckett, chair of Wellburn Care Homes which picked up an award for the superb dining experience it gives to residents.  

We also hear from Cornerstone Healthcare Group’s maintenance manager Andy Foster about an award-winning initiative to introduce more effective seizure monitors and safer mattresses; and from Valerie Manor’s owner and manager Zoe Fry about its family approach to running the business which means it has a waiting list for nurses wanting to work there. 

 We cap off this Care Home Awards Special with a chat to headline sponsor Legal & General Retirement Living Solutions’ ceo Steve Ellis and organiser Matthew Davies who gives us an exclusive about next year’s Awards. 

Well done to everyone on a great event!
