Local MP, the Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell, rushed straight from a
meeting with the Prime Minister to be guest of honour at a
reception to celebrate two land-mark achievements at Sutton-based
CM2000.
The company's award winning technology, CallConfirmLive!,
monitors home care delivery, protecting people receiving care at
home and those caring for them. The system now logs over a million
calls a week and Mr Mitchell was delighted to present a certificate
and gift vouchers to Oxfordshire Care Worker Catherine Eggleton who
logged the 150 millionth call.
Mr Mitchell congratulated Catherine on the important work she
does with the vulnerable in the community and highlighted the
contribution CallConfirmLive! makes to the confidence and security
of those wishing to remain at home in old age.
CM2000 were also celebrating being one of the first 1000
companies worldwide to achieve BS25999 - the British Standard for
Business Continuity - an accreditation CM2000 believe is critical
for companies providing hosted technology in the care
sector.
Presenting the award was Neil Hannah, Global Director of
Certification for the British Standards Institution who said, "In
these days of scandal and mistrust, having independent verification
that you have solid plans in place to ensure business continuity is
the only way to prove it to your customers." He congratulated
CM2000 for making it through the rigorous accreditation
process.
Peter Longman, Managing Director of CM2000 said, "Today's event
celebrates the vital, and often unrecognised, role of Care Workers
and also highlights the work that goes on behind the scenes to
ensure the systems they rely on are robust and operate to the
highest possible standards."
Andrew Mitchell MP concluded the proceedings by saying, "We are
proud to have successful, growing businesses like CM2000 in
Sutton."
