Staff Nursing Care Awards for staff of Glencarron Nursing Home

Slieve Gullion Sinn Féin Councillor Terry Hearty has congratulated the staff of Glencarron Nursing Home for their outstanding success in the Staff Nursing Care Awards.

 
Having received successful nominations in the categories of Care Assistant of the Year, alongside nominations for Nurse of the Year, Nurse Manager and for the Nursing Home as an institution, Hearty commended the good work of the Glencarron team in difficult times:
 
"These are well-deserved accolades for the Glencarron staff and management and I am delighted that their efforts have been recognised on this scale.
 
"At a time when acute healthcare services are under strain it is reassuring to know that our elderly population are still receiving a very high standard of clinical expertise at Glencarron.
 
"Staff receive the most modern and relevant training, patients enjoy a warm and friendly atmosphere of care, and the wider community cherish the role Glencarron plays in providing first-class local healthcare.
 
"The training of staff is paramount to the provision of clinical excellence and in Glencarron they recognise the need for a programme of continuous professional development. These awards are the culmination of that commitment to caring and ongoing learning.
 
"I visit the Glencarron Nursing home often, and the staff can without doubt pride itself on its commitment to caring for its local community.
