Who is a CARESTAR?

Genuine service is more than offering of yourself when it is most convenient for you, it is tackling odds and difficulties to be there for others. In the home care space this is who a CARESTAR is. Home care workers enable clients' families to continue to engage in their daily professional and social life. Even in the midst of a global pandemic when stress and tensions were high for everyone. We have those who cared for the health and wellbeing of the elderly and disable community of New York. A CARESTAR goes above and beyond a list of tasks to ensure the client experience is one they can be proud of. Who can be nominated?Each nominee, except for the posthumous nominations, must be a home health aide, personal care assistant, or housekeeper who has been working actively for the last 12 months, at least an average of 35 hours per week.

How do I prepare a nomination?

After giving a brief background on the nominee, remember to provide specific examples of why that person deserves the award.

  • Does the nominee go out of their way to help patients? Give two examples.
  • Do they always show co-workers how special they are? Give an example.
  • Be as descriptive as possible. Is there one heroic or meaningful event that stands out?
  • Does the nominee participate in voluntary or charity work outside their job?

Tell us about them.
Remember, the judges don’t know the nominee as well as the nominator – as such, an essay and examples are required. The entries that stand out above the others describe why the nominator and other co-workers believe the nominee is an extraordinary caregiver.
