ELEVEN Greensleeves Care homes have achieved the prestigious Gold Standards Framework accreditation for excellence in palliative and end-of-life care – marking the second successful round of accreditation for the not-for-profit group and bringing the total number of the operator’s GSF-accredited homes to 19.
This milestone is part of Greensleeves Care’s ongoing commitment to ensure every resident receives compassionate, dignified and person-centred support through every stage of later life.
All of the provider’s newly accredited homes completed the GSF training programme, compiled a detailed portfolio evidencing the Framework’s standards in practice, and welcomed an in-person assessment visit by the national GSF team to confirm that the approach has been successfully embedded into everyday care.
Director of quality and compliance Julie Clarges said: “We’re absolutely delighted that a further 11 Greensleeves Care homes have now achieved Gold Standards Framework accreditation.
“This is a testament to the commitment and compassion of our teams, who work tirelessly to ensure every resident receives the best possible care at every stage of life.
“Palliative and end-of-life care is one of the most meaningful parts of what we do. This accreditation reflects how our teams consistently go above and beyond to provide care that’s not only clinically excellent, but deeply personal, compassionate, and dignified.
“We want people to feel good about their care and confident in their choices – even through challenging moments. This accreditation reinforces to families the quality and support they can expect.”
