Set out to reward good practice and to celebrate achievements, the awards recognise innovation and outstanding clinical excellence in healthcare professionals in care homes, residential care settings and domiciliary care teams across Northern Ireland. We want to shine a light on the vital work that is being done to provide the care and support that is needed to provide those in care homes with the quality of life we would want for ourselves in later life.
