Princess Christian Care Centre in Woking has been reaccredited with the prestigious GSF Platinum status – recognising its high-quality end-of-life care.
Out of approximately 17,000 care homes in the UK, only 329 have achieved GSF accreditation, with just 42 homes being reaccredited this year. Only 28 of these were awarded Platinum status, with just five achieving a perfect 100 per cent score,–placing Princess Christian – part of the Nellsar Care Home Group – in an elite 0.03 per cent of all UK care homes.
The Platinum status is a nationally recognised benchmark of quality. For over two decades, GSF has helped teams in all settings provide improved and proactive care, enabling people to live well until they die with a practical and evidence-based end-of-life care improvement programme.
Feedback from the GSF Panel in the official report said: “This home should be very proud of itself. This is the third reaccreditation since original accreditation and it clearly demonstrates embracing of every aspect of the GSF Framework and an ongoing commitment to continuous improvement.”
Mario Taherian, general registered manager at Princess Christian, said: "I’m incredibly proud of the team for their dedication to excellence and continuing to set new benchmarks in the industry. I believe that such recognition reflects the quality of care we deliver and also encourages us to continue doing what we’re doing by supporting individuals and their families in the latter stages of life.”
