2024 Great British Care Awards - Highly Commended for Palliative and End of Life Care - Avocet Court Care Home

Recipient: Avocet Court Care Home

Date: Friday 01 Nov 2024

Athena’s Avocet Court care home in Ipswich was highly commended at the same awards ceremony for the work done at the Ipswich home in End of Life/Palliative care. This award rewards compassionate, dignified, and professional care to those residents at the end of life.

Palliative and end-of-life care requires a special kind of care, not just medical and emotional support to the resident but also support to families and friends during such a challenging time as well as support to the care team and others at the homes who form lasting bonds with residents and their families.

These achievements reflect Athena’s enduring dedication to supporting team members, empowering them to reach their full potential, and ultimately enriching the lives of the residents we serve.
