Queens View Harbour Care Home is proud to announce that it has been awarded the Practice Learning Environment Team Award 2025, recognising the home’s outstanding commitment to supporting student nurses and creating a positive learning environment.

The team was nominated by student nurse Jenni McKiggan, who completed a 15-week management placement at the home. In her nomination, Jenni highlighted the dedication and encouragement she received from the entire team throughout her placement.

Jenni said: “Every nurse and member of staff I have the pleasure of working with on my 15 week management placement have been so supportive and shown me how to provide excellent care. I truly feel that I was accepted as part of the team here and will miss working here.”
