Sonas Nursing Home Awarded Investors in Diversity Bronze Award

We’re thrilled to announce that Sonas Nursing Home has received the Investors in Diversity Bronze accreditation from the Irish Centre for Diversity. This award highlights our ongoing efforts to build an inclusive, respectful and empowering workplace across all our homes.

What This Recognition Means for Us at Sonas Nursing Home

This Bronze accreditation goes beyond a title. It confirms that we actively promote Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) in every part of our organisation. We’ve built a workplace culture that prioritises:

  • Fairness
  • Respect
  • Equality
  • Diversity
  • Inclusion
  • Engagement

We proudly follow the principles known as #FREDIE. These values influence how we care for our residents, support one another and treat everyone with dignity.

Living Our Values Every Day 

At Sonas, we don’t just speak about values, we live them. Our six core values are Teamwork, Energy, Empowerment, Advocacy, Warmth and Empathy, which shape every interaction we have. They guide our teamwork, our decision-making and our approach to care.

“These values are not just words. They are how we work, live and care together.”

In fact, our team’s passion and dedication made this achievement possible. Everyone at Sonas played a role in building a culture where inclusion thrives.

What’s Next: Silver and Gold 

Of course, we’re not stopping here. We’ve already started preparing for the Silver and Gold Investors in Diversity accreditations. Each level will challenge us to go further, to review our practices, strengthen our approach and ensure inclusion remains central to everything we do.

As a result, we’ll continue to learn, adapt, and grow. We believe that inclusion is not a one-off goal but an ongoing journey.

Why This Matters for Families 

When families choose a nursing home, they look for more than just care. They want a place where their loved ones feel safe, respected, and understood. At Sonas Nursing Home, this accreditation offers reassurance that we deliver compassionate, person-centred care built on trust and respect.

Furthermore, this award reflects our commitment to treating everyone with dignity, residents, staff and families alike.
