250 guests from over 16 residential care homes, domiciliary agencies and day centers from the county supported the second Care Awards ceremony organised by Shropshire Partners in Care (SPIC).

Chief Executive of Coverage Care, David Coull said, “We are delighted to be awarded Care Business of Year. We are a not- for profit company and are proud of the high standards of care we provide. Our success is due to our staff who have made winning this award possible.”
The awards acknowledge the hard work, success and outstanding achievement of care staff, nurses and care managers working within the independent care community in the county.

The Care Business of the Year award was judged by a panel of independent judges and measured by clear business objectives, evidence of continuous improvement including the training of staff, inspection reports and customer satisfaction reviews.

Sponsor Lloyd Jones from the Royal Bank of Scotland who presented Coverage Care with the award said, “Shropshire should be proud of the excellent standards of care they provide for local people. By rewarding and encouraging care companies and staff it really does boost morale. Congratulations to Coverage Care for their outstanding achievements.”

Coverage Care operates from 14-care centers in Shropshire employing over 650 staff on a not-for profit basis. The services they provide support older people with different requirements and have a special interest in helping residents with more complex needs, including dementia, physical disabilities and sensory difficulties.
