Gold Medals For West Yorkshire Care Homes

TWO Nab Wood care homes have been awarded the prestigious Gold Standard Framework Accreditation Quality Hallmark Award in recognition of their continued high standards, after completing a rigorous assessment programme.

Brookfield Care Home and Staveley Birk Leas Nursing Home, which are both owned and operated by Czajka Care Group, have successfully completed the coveted accreditation. The company’s Currergate Nursing Home in Steeton and Beanlands Nursing Home in Cross Hills already hold the Gold Standard Framework Accreditation.

Konrad Czajka, managing director of Czajka Care Group, says: “The Gold Standard Framework recognises those care homes that can evidence the very highest standards of care for all people nearing the end of their lives, it means that we listen to what people want and support them and their families in making choices and decisions about their care. We’re delighted that both Brookfield and Staveley Birk Leas have now achieved this accreditation, it’s very well deserved.

“These homes are a hallmark of excellence and are just a handful of care homes in the area that are now recognised by the Care Quality Commission, NHS Choices and by a wide range of other indications of quality provision.”

As part of the award, staff completed an intensive nine month training programme before the homes were put through a rigorous accreditation process that assessed all key operational aspects. Inspectors also carried out a comprehensive review across all areas of care that residents receive.
