BC Care Providers Association (BCCPA) is honoured to announce Nahin Ahmed (Health Care Aide and Care Manager, Global Senior Care) as the recipient of the 2025 BC Care Provider of the Year | Home Health Award.
For the past three years, Nahin has transformed the lives of countless seniors at Global Senior Care. Trained as a family physician in her home country, she brought her knowledge and genuine love for helping others to Canada, where she has built a new life as a single mother. Despite the challenges of starting over, Nahin demonstrates remarkable resilience, humility, and strength to ensure every client feels safe, valued and cared for.
As a Care Manager, she is highly respected by colleagues and clients alike. Her leadership style is hands-on and patient – working alongside her team members to ensure they feel confident to deliver high-quality care. Her involvement doesn’t stop at just her colleagues: they extend to their clients as well. Nahin is thoughtful and remembers all the small details. When it is a clients’ birthday, she will go out of her way to get them flowers and write them a handwritten card. This thoughtful gesture immediately reassures families that their loved one is in compassionate hands. Whether she is reuniting a 90-year-old client with his wife, or visiting hospice clients on her own time, Nahin’s thoughtful gestures reflect her profound empathy and commitment to dignity.
“Nahin consistently advocates for our clients, ensuring they experience the highest quality of life in every dimension: mental, emotional, and physical,” says Paola Paipilla, Operations Manager. “Her tireless work ethic, courage, and compassion make her an extraordinary caregiver, potential full time care Manager and an exceptional human being.”
On top of it all, she is devoted to her own professional development. She has completed specialized dementia training, earned her Masters in Global Health, and is now pursuing her physician’s license, all while working full time and raising her son. Her dedication to Canada’s health-care sector is inspiring, and the positive statements about her work ethic, leadership, and care is a testament to that.
“I deeply admire her, value her as a colleague, and am honoured to have her in my life. She embodies the very spirit of caregiving excellence, and I can think of no one more deserving for this award.”
