Who Are CareStars?
The CareStar Awards recognize and highlight the work and contributions of the community health workers—our inaugural award in 2022 will focus on the home health aide. We want to bring greater awareness of the importance of the home care industry to the New York medical ecosystem. Shining the light on home health aides is critical to the industry’s sustenance, recognizing their invaluable work and commitment to delivering quality care to clients and their families.
CareStar honorees:

- Show compassion, empathy, and respect in the delivery of quality care for clients and families
- Acknowledge and meet the unique physical, emotional, and practical needs of clients and families

WHAT ARE THE CARESTAR AWARDS 2022?
While many people are still unaware or devalue the contribution of the over 450,000 HCWs—Home Health aides and Personal Care Assistants in NYC and Long Island, the Anchor Group, in collaboration with several industry partners, presents the CareStar Awards 2020.
The CareStar Awards 2022 recognizes the critical roles and contributions of HCWs to our communities, caring for clients and supporting their aging in place, thereby allowing their families to continue to engage in their daily professional and social lives. In short, HCWs are pivotal to the productivity working of NYC and its health care system.
