DO you know a hospital worker or team who deserves to be recognised for their work?

Hillingdon Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust this week launched its annual staff awards, to pay tribute to the 2,600 people working at the Hillingdon and Mount Vernon sites.

There are five categories and the public is allowed to vote in the Compassionate Care category.

The award is for an individual or team that excelled at ‘seeing the person in the patient’.

The additional non-public categories include Quality and Innovation, Outstanding Demonstration of CARES Values, Outstanding Team, Natalie’s Award and Chief Executive’s Award.

Closing date for entries is 5pm on Friday, February 27, and applications can be submitted in the following ways:

• Post: Staff Awards, The Furze, Hillingdon Hospital, Pield Health Road, Hillingdon, UB8 3NN

• Email: StaffAwards@thh.nhs.uk

• Online: www.surveymonkey.com/s/THH_Public_Nominations

• In person: main reception of Hillingdon and Mount Vernon hospitals. Hard copies of the application forms are available at reception.
