The Home Care Association of America has announced the 13 finalists for the 2022 Caregiver of the Year award. More than 300 caregivers from around the country were nominated for this national award, which recognizes the top caregivers across the country who provide care and services at home, such as assistance with bathing, dressing, and medication reminders, to seniors and people with disabilities. “Caregiving is a tough job. It requires a special kind of empathy that not all people are lucky enough to possess,” said HCAOA CEO Vicki Hoak. “This award is just one way we can lift up our caregivers, who are a vital lifeline to the clients they serve at home. It is a pleasure to recognize those who go above and beyond with a song, a surprise outing, or a client’s favorite meal to ensure they are cared for.”
The overall winner of the Caregiver of the Year award will be announced on September 14, prior to the HCAOA Annual Leadership Conference on September 17-19. The winner will be recognized at the event and will receive a cash award of $1,000. Congratulations to the following finalists!
