15 October 2014

Last week saw the crème de la crème of the UK independent healthcare sector gather at the Lancaster London Hotel for a prestigious Gala Dinner to celebrate successes in the Laing & Buisson Awards won by dedicated professionals representing all aspects of UK health and care.

Categories covering all aspects of independent healthcare were hoping to be honored, amongst them finalist, Julie Parsons, Scheme Manager of Caremark (Osmund Court), Caremark’s Extra Care Scheme in Billingshurst, West Sussex.

A comprehensive, independent panel of judges had the difficult task of selecting eventual winners from the 72 shortlisted entries, who represented the very best of dedication and innovation in their respective fields.

Julie Parsons, Caremark (Osmund Court) was selected as a finalist, along with two others, from the six entries for Extra Care Provider, a new category introduced for the first time this year by Laing & Buisson.

Caremark (Osmund Court) have for the last 5 years delivered a high quality, personalized care and support service to the tenants of the Saxon Weald Extra Care Scheme in Billingshurst, West Sussex. 

The past year has seen Caremark work with Saxon Weald to raise awareness of extra care in the local community, foster relationships with external community groups and educate and encourage clients about self-care. 

The success of this scheme has seen Caremark (Osmund Court) win a consortium bid as the provider of choice for another Saxon Weald Extra Care initiative.

Although not a winner on the night, Julie Parsons and her team at Caremark (Osmund Court) had every reason to celebrate reaching the finals of these highly respected industry awards.
