A BRADFORD nursing home has been rewarded for its specialist end of life care.

Staff at Knowles Court, Bridgeway in Holme Wood, have been working towards the Gold Standards Framework Care Homes Accreditation for the past two years.

"This award was for the high quality of care provided for people in the final years of life. It is hard work and staff have to embrace and be committed for it to be successful," said general manager Louisa Hermann.

"We are all very proud to have been given this award because it is proof of our commitment to making sure people at that stage of their life are getting the very best of care which is only the care they deserve."

The home also got a fully compliant ranking from the Care Quality Commission when inspectors visited last July.
