BELONG Warrington’s Michelle Jones has won the Frontline Leaders award at the prestigious Great North West Care Awards 2014.
Michelle, who was nominated for her role in coaching members of staff and overseeing their professional development to secure the best outcome for everybody supported by Belong Warrington, is known by hundreds of colleagues across the North West as an inspirational leader.
She was presented with the award by entertainer Steve Walls in a lavish ceremony at The Palace Hotel, Manchester.
Judges at the Great North West Care awards said: “Michelle is a natural leader who has demonstrated her ability to understand styles without perhaps being aware. She looks at each person in her team and individual needs and provides the appropriate leadership style.”
Speaking of her success in the awards, Michelle said: “It’s so touching to know that my hard work and commitment has been recognised. I’m lucky to work with so many amazing people and proud to be a part of the high standard of care that they offer to Belong customers.”
Congratulating Michelle for her win, Janine Curwell, General Manager of Belong Warrington, said: “In an environment like Belong Warrington, which specialises in offering support to people living with dementia, leadership really matters. Through her mentoring, Michelle helps carers to put what they learn into practice. We’re very lucky that she’s based at Belong Warrington and can share her guidance with all of the staff that joined the care village over the summer. “
Michelle Jones will now attend the national finals of the Great British Care Awards, where she will compete against other regional winners from the Frontline Leaders category. The final winners will be announced at The ICC in Birmingham in April June 2015. The Great British Care Awards, which are supported by the Department of Health, exist to celebrate excellence across the care sector, paying tribute to individuals who have demonstrated outstanding excellence within their field of work.
Michelle is the best in the north west!
