Accreditation Success for Catholic Care of the Aged
Catholic Care of the Aged is delighted to announce the successful three-year accreditation recently awarded to each of its Nursing Homes and Hostels (see list below).

The accreditation process involved a very thorough review of the services of the Nursing Homes and Hostels paying particular attention to the care, support and satisfaction of the residents.

Particular emphasis was also given to ensure that each facility meets current day standards and expectations across the whole of its operations.

Residents of the facilities gave very glowing feedback to the visiting accreditation assessors regarding the loving kindness and warmth they experience from the staff.

Mr Ralph Watson, CEO of Catholic Care of the Aged, stated: “This fine achievement is a ringing endorsement of the high standards which Catholic Care of the Aged ensures throughout its system”.

He added: “Catholic Care of the Aged gives enormous attention to the education and support of staff to ensure that they are able to do their very best for the care of the frail aged”.

Mr Watson also stated: “The people of the area can feel very confident that their aged are being gently and professionally cared for in the Nursing Homes and Hostels of Catholic Care of the Aged”.
