Dementia Team at Heart of Kent Hospice is Burdett Nursing Awards Finalist

Heart of Kent Hospice was a finalist at the prestigious Burdett Nursing Awards 2023. The ceremony, which took place at the Waldorf Hotel in London on Thursday 11 May 2023, rewards nursing teams for their sustained commitment to providing high-quality care.

Being short-listed as a Finalist is recognition of the incredible work the Dementia Team carries out at the Hospice. Feedback from the judges was that it was a very difficult decision and that they highly praised the work and innovative practice of the Dementia Team.

In 2015 Heart of Kent Hospice became one of the first UK hospices to offer a full Dementia Service to the local community it serves. It tackled the need head-on, and referrals have been growing consistently since the service was launched. Tracy Jackson, the Head of Dementia Team, steered the delivery of the service from these early beginnings.
