Care Home Interiors Company Champions Excellence in Dementia Care Design at Healthcare Care Design Awards.

North View Wins ‘Best Specialist/Dementia Care Award at The Healthcare Care Design Awards, Sponsored by Care Home Interiors Company

The Healthcare Care Design Awards celebrated the very best in healthcare and specialist care environments this year, recognising innovation, excellence, and the profound impact of well-designed spaces on individuals’ health and well-being outcomes.

Among the standout winners was North View, part of Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, which took home the coveted Best Specialist/Dementia Care award—an award sponsored by Care Home Interiors Company in recognition of its commitment to transforming care through innovative interiors.

As a leading specialist in care home interiors, Care Home Interiors Company was proud to sponsor this important category, underscoring its dedication to creating environments that not only look beautiful but enhance the quality of life for those in care. The company’s mission is clear: to champion interior design that goes beyond aesthetics and delivers real, measurable benefits for residents, care teams, and families.

North View’s success is a testament to the power of purposeful, dementia-friendly design, with its carefully curated environment reducing anxiety, promoting independence, and ensuring residents feel safe and at home. But the real impact of its design is seen in the outcomes it has achieved.

Kerry Southern-Reason, CEO of Care Home Interiors Company, praised the tangible benefits of North View’s approach, highlighting a key breakthrough: “The impact of North View’s design has been extraordinary, resulting in a significant reduction in restraint rates. That is the real win here—not just in what has been imagined and achieved in design terms, but in the real, positive patient outcomes that have followed. It’s proof that when we prioritise human-centred design, we can dramatically improve care experiences and patient outcomes.”

This success demonstrates that care environments designed with compassion, science, and expertise can lead to better emotional well-being, reduced stress for both residents and staff, and ultimately, a more dignified approach to dementia care.

“We extend our warmest congratulations to the entire North View team, whose dedication and vision have made this achievement possible. May this success inspire further advancements and collaborations in the realm of specialist care design.”

Here’s to a Future of Inspired, Caring, and Beautiful Spaces!
