Nicky Beadle, Care Manager of Bluebird Care Slough, S.Bucks & S.Wycombe has been shortlisted for The Dignity & Respect Awards 2016, organised by Buckinghamshire County Council.
Nicky is one of just three people out of 70 nominated in her category, to be shortlisted for the award. It recognises the commitment of individuals and organisations who provide care and support across health and social care services in Buckinghamshire.
Nicky was nominated by Bluebird Care Slough, S.Bucks & S.Wycombe’s owners Ian and Anne Inglis for her tireless commitment to improving the lives of older people. Ian said; “For all her great work over the years, we decided that we would nominate Nicky. She makes a real difference to the lives of nearly 200 older people living in our community. We were delighted when we heard that she had been shortlisted.”
Nicky said: “I had no idea I was being nominated for the award, so the news that I had been shortlisted came as a complete surprise. I am honoured to have been shortlisted for such a worthwhile accolade and I feel privileged to work with such a fantastic team and in such a rewarding role.”
As part of the judging process, Nicky will be filmed at work and interviews carried out with colleagues and a customer. The film will then be screened at the awards on April 15 at The Occulus in Aylesbury. The public can also vote for their favourite film on social media.
The awards are part of the County Council’s Dignity and Respect campaign, in conjunction with the NHS, to raise awareness of the basic human right to be treated with dignity and respect.
