Best Possible Care Awards Shortlist Announced

We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone who nominated staff and volunteers for a Best Possible Care award.

We had over 180 entries and our judging panel had a difficult task of selecting our shortlisted nominees. Those listed below are through to the final and the winners will be announced during our awards evening on Friday 27th September.

Congratulations to everyone who was nominated and to our shortlisted nominees!

 Didn't get a chance to nominate a member of our team for a Best Possible Care Award? We run two yearly award programmes for staff at NGH. These are our DAISY awards for nurses and midwives and our Everyday Hero awards for all other clinical and non-clinical staff.
