Support Worker Andrea Price, has been shortlisted for ‘Exceptional Newcomer’ in the Care Forum Wales Awards.
Andrea first joined the care industry 18 months ago after supporting her Husband, Jon, who suffered a life-threatening heart attack five years ago.
She secured a Support Worker role with My Choice Healthcare, a care facility provider operating across South Wales, Shropshire and the West Midlands.
Andrea joined Springfield Residential House, a My Choice Healthcare facility in Gilfach in March 2023. She has now been shortlisted for ‘Exceptional Newcomer’ alongside two other finalists by the Care Forum Wales Awards.
Bethan Evans, CEO of My Choice Healthcare, said:
“My Choice Healthcare was founded to make a positive difference to every life we touch, by aspiring towards providing exceptional care and high-quality accommodation, to support Adults with Learning Disabilities, those with Mental Illness and/or Older People.
“Andrea is an excellent representative of our business and truly showcases what it means to deliver exceptional standards of care and support for those who need us. Both the team at Springfield Residential House and I are incredibly proud of her and feel honoured that she is part of My Choice Healthcare. We now look forward to the awards ceremony in a few weeks’ time and extend the best of luck to all other finalists.”
Andrea Price added:
“I really wish that I had joined the care industry years ago, because it is so rewarding to see the response from all individuals at Springfield Residential House. I am really honoured to have been recognised at such an early stage in my care career, but I am no doubt that caring for disabled members of my own family over the years has helped.”
Taking place on Friday 18th October 2024 at the Mercure Cardiff Holland House Hotel, the Care Forum Wales Awards celebrate excellence across the Wales care sector and congratulates individuals who have demonstrated outstanding care within their field.
