A mental health nurse at Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home in Carbis Bay, near St Ives, has recently scooped a prestigious nursing award.
Scott Hulin was crowned winner of the Social Care Nurse of the Year award at Cornwall Council’s Proud to Care Awards recently. This esteemed award recognises nurses in adult social care who demonstrate exceptional clinical care and leadership.
Scott’s holistic approach sets him apart, deeply connecting with residents by understanding their life stories, wellbeing, and emotional needs.
Scott, who has worked at the not-for-profit home for two years said: “I feel privileged and grateful to have been even nominated for this award.
“I believe that we can't achieve much in healthcare on our own, and this award belongs to the whole team at Trewartha. Thank you to my home manager Julia Tyldesley for her support and leadership - and thank you to all of my amazing colleagues who work so hard every day.
“We get many opportunities throughout each day to enrich someone's life, and that's so important.”
Highly respected by his peers, Scott nurtures and mentors colleagues, offering thoughtful guidance. His calm, patient manner empowers his team and has inspired others to pursue nursing careers.
His dedication is illustrated by heartfelt gestures like organising a visit from Naval personnel for a former Royal Navy resident and how he provided compassionate end-of-life care to a beloved colleague facing a terminal illness.
Joining Scott at the ceremony was Cat Rowe, care assistant at Sanctuary Care’s The Green Residential Care Home in Redruth, who was proud to be named runner up in the Care Worker of the Year Award.
Sanctuary Care has been delivering trusted care to older people for over 25 years.
