Care Professional Awards & Recognition
At Home Instead®, our success revolves around the work of our Care Professionals – and we make sure they know it! We celebrate Care Pros year-round through: notes of appreciation, recognition in our employee newsletter, flowers, extra time off, and even impromptu office parties.
Home Instead Care Professional of the Year Award
Care Professional appreciation is baked into our DNA. We sincerely value the passion and talent each Care Pro brings to our mission day in and day out.
To thank our Care Pros for all the amazing things they do, we nominate a person for our national Mary Steibel Care Pro of the Year award. It’s a small way to show how thankful we are to them for demonstrating compassion and exceptional care to the seniors and families they serve.
