A Tradition of Great Caregiving

At Home Instead Senior Care, we reward our local CAREGivers with CAREGiver of the Month and CAREGiver of the Year awards to show our appreciation for all they do. Home Instead, Inc. also recognizes regional CAREGivers of the Year and one special CAREGiver who shows exceptional dedication is the recipient of the national award — The Mary Steibel CAREGiver of the Year Award.

This program inspires CAREGivers to strive for excellence. It creates a sense of pride in the fact that the Home Instead Senior Care franchise network recognizes, appreciates and rewards their hard work, compassionate care and service to others.

 

BARBARA B. 2012 CARGIVER OF THE YEAR

We are elated to announce Barbara B. as our 2012 CAREGiver of the Year for Home Instead Senior Care of Davidson and Davie counties!

There are several things that we took into consideration when selecting a CAREGiver for this award.  A few of the attributes that we looked for included dedication, perseverance, love and compassion. Barbara possesses these and many more which made her a front runner from the beginning. She has spent several years working with us as a Home Instead CAREGiver and throughout her career has changed the lives of several clients and their families. Here are some words from the son of her current client that he asked us to share with everyone:

“Having Barbara help with my parents is actually better than if I were able to care for them myself. She was one of our very first CAREGivers that we received and it didn’t take long for me to realize that she is an outstanding person and CAREGiver. My mom needs more and more care and Barbara keeps me informed as to how she is progressing. My dad is also getting worse and she is very helpful with him. Words cannot describe how important Barbara is to our family. She is truly appreciated by us all and I can only congratulate her on this well-deserved award. It’s a good feeling that I can trust her to do what is right for my parents at all times. “Trust” is what the one word that I think of when I think of Barbara!”

On behalf of your family at Home Instead Senior Care, we congratulate you on this wonderful achievement and thank you for your dedication to your clients. May you continue to find happiness in caring for others for years to come.

"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart." ~Helen Keller

 

JEFF R. 2011 CAREGIVER OF THE YEAR

We have the most humble privilege to announce Jeff R. as our 2011 CAREGiver of the Year for Home Instead Senior Care of Davidson and Davie counties.  

We want to share some of Jeff's thoughts on what being a CAREGiver means to him. This is a small but accurate depiction of what an amazing person Jeff is and shows how personal his job is to him:

"I've been CAREGiving off and on most of my life.  Sid and Shanna Jay, and the rest of the Home Instead Senior Care family gave me the outstanding opportunity to do this for a living.  That was 4 years ago.  When we go into clients' homes we instantly become an integral part of their lives.  We become the relief for the family and in most cases the saving grace for the client.  That's an extreme honor and should be treated as such.  The training that I received at Home Instead is second to none! It's given me the confidence to be the best CAREGiver that I can be.  The office staff has been fantastic to me, especially because they are always there when I need them.  Most importantly, Home Instead Senior Care has given me the opportunity and the tools needed to excel in this business.  CAREGiving is not just what we do, it's who we are, and that's a God given gift.  I am proud and honored to be a Home Instead Senior Care CAREGiver and the 2011 CAREGiver of the Year!"

Jeff, on behalf of your extended family at Home Instead Senior Care we wholeheartedly congratulate you on this achievement. We cannot express enough gratitude for all that you do for your clients and fellow CAREGivers. It is a joy to work with you each and every day.

"Your greatness is revealed not by the lights that shine upon you, but by the light that shines within you." ~Ray Davis
