Award for nursing home staff

Staff at Spalding’s Ashwood Nursing Home are celebrating after being named fifth best care home in the East Midlands.

The award came from carehome.co.uk, the largest online directory for care homes in the UK.

In the top 20 East Midlands category, Ashwood Nursing Home took fifth, out of 1,588.

This was based on the number of excellent recommendations from family and residents the homes received.

Manager Daniela Phillips said: “I am extremely pleased and proud that we have won this award for the second year running. The staff are overwhelmed by this achievement.”
