They really took the time to understand us, what we did before, and how what they’re going to bring to the table could enhance it from there

There are many ways to define Americare’s culture, but at its foundation it has always been about recognition, recognition for our employees and for each other. We’ve built that into so many of our programmes and systems.

Thanks to Christi and the Awardco Center of Excellence, we now have a strong thought partner that shares new and different strategies to help us further elevate the Americare recognition experience. We have tested the market, and this collaborative consultation and creative problem solving from recognition practitioners differentiates Awardco. In practice, it has built our confidence that we have business partners who are sincerely invested in helping us take recognition from being a perk to a powerful strategic driver that delivers tangible impact.

We love to catch our team members doing great things! They can’t pour into others from an empty cup. That’s why we invest in recognition and take the time to celebrate our people.

We use recognition as a tool to motivate and encourage our employees—everyone knows Awardco because we actively use it for any and all incentives for employees.

The support Awardco gave during implementation and afterward has been top-notch.

If I were to describe the High Five Club [Awardco] in a couple words, I'd say it's collaborative and it's contagious.

Our caregivers give so much emotionally—it’s intense work. Recognition helps keep them engaged and supported.
