MHA care homes scoop Top 20 region awards

The leading care home reviews site, carehome.co.uk, has announced that MHA has once again been named as one of the Top 20 care home providers in the country along with five of its homes receiving regional awards.

The awards are based on reviews of care homes written by their residents, as well as their friends and relatives, with thousands of homes battling it out to make it into the Top 20 for each of the 12 regions.

Looking for a care home for a relative or a friend can be a hugely emotional journey, marking such a significant life change. Many are also unfamiliar and uncertain about the process and what should inform their choice. It was in response to this that carehome.co.uk launched its awards back in 2014, with the aim of making people’s search for a care home easier.

Dan Ryan, chief operating officer said: "We are delighted to once again be named as one of the Top 20 care providers in the UK. At MHA we have a commitment to making sure we have the highest possible care for our residents, enabling them to live later life well.

"The reviews we receive from relatives on carehome.co.uk show how highly they rate the care we give their loved ones and the support we give to families.

"The inclusion of MHA in the Top 20 also demonstrates the dedication and compassion of our colleagues working in care homes."

The regional award winners are:

North West of England - Connell Court, Pennystone Court and Beechville

East of England - Oak Manor

South West England - Fitzwarren House

There are over 18,500 care homes in the UK and residents, relatives and friends rate the homes on their overall standard, their facilities, the quality of their care and support, cleanliness, whether residents are treated with dignity, the standard of food and drink, staff, activities, management, security and value for money.
