It was a night to remember for Rodwell Farm as we celebrated the first Rodwell Care Awards at the Felbridge Hotel on 14 November.

This was a care awards with a difference as the Award winners were joined by specially invited residents and their families as well as colleagues and care professionals from Kent, Surrey and Sussex.

The winners themselves had been nominated by residents, their relatives and friends who have seen for themselves the outstanding qualities these individuals bring to the care and support of their loved ones.

The winner at Rodwell Farm was Glenys Slark

Glenys was Rodwell Care Group’s first activity person and has been with Rodwell Farm for 15 years and for Glenys work is her bedrock. She has created the most amazing parties such as Valentine’s nights which have given so much pleasure to residents and their relatives alike.

Rodwell Care Awards were created to celebrate the achievements of those members of staff who are helping transform the lives of people with dementia and physical frailty.

Owner of Rodwell Care Group Ernie Rodwell said: “Glenys and all our winners are people who can empathise with our residents and see the world through their eyes; they are not afraid of putting the needs of others first; their reward is a job well done and the Rodwell Care Group believes that is worthy of celebration. The Awards recognise staff who excel in delivering relationship-centred care on a daily basis; individuals who motivate the team around them and who positively enjoy supporting residents and giving them the individualised care, companionship and stimulation that facilitates their well-being.”
