Foxton Court care home in Morpeth has celebrated the hard work of Chef Jean Cairns with a Kindness in Care Award.
After joining Foxton Court when it first opened nine years ago, Jean has shown her commitment to providing kindness in care for all Residents, Relatives and Colleagues.
Jean often goes above and beyond at Foxton Court’s events, ensuring that all aspects of catering are perfect at Christmas parties, open days and even Resident’s afternoon tea, which has been recognised by the award.
The Kindness in Care Awards programme was launched by HC-One in October 2013. It recognises the efforts of their kindest colleagues, and the impact they have on the lives of Residents and their loved ones. Month on month, record breaking numbers of awards are presented to Colleagues, volunteers, and whole teams within the family of homes that HC-One operates across the UK.
One Resident commented: “It was so lovely to see the smile on Jean’s face when she received her award.”
Edwin de Leon, Home Manager at Foxton Court, said: “Everyone at our home appreciates the efforts that Jean goes to in her role. I am so pleased that her commitment and hard work have been recognised, as the Kindness in Care Award is a very well-deserved award.”
