Members of the public have the chance to nominate their hospital hero, as the Trust that runs Shropshire’s acute hospitals gears up for its fantastic annual Trust Celebratory Awards.
The Shrewsbury and Telford Hospital NHS Trust (SaTH), has once again teamed up with the Shropshire Star to give people across Shropshire and mid-Wales the chance to nominate teams or individuals who have made a remarkable contribution or have shown exceptional compassion and dedication in their role.
The Shropshire Star Public Recognition Award is a really special award because nominations are made by members of the public, followed by a public vote to choose the winner. This is a wonderful opportunity to ensure your hospital heroes receive the recognition they deserve.
To nominate visit www.trustawards.co.uk/shropshirestar. The nominations will be shortlisted and followed by a public vote, so you can choose your winner.
Louise Barnett, Chief Executive at SaTH, said: “The Shropshire Star Public Recognition Award is a really special award as the winner will be nominated, and voted for, by you, our valued members of our community, who are the reason we do what we do.
“This award celebrates the outstanding dedication and commitment of our colleagues and teams, and the truly wonderful work that they do every day in our hospitals and the wider community.
“This is a great opportunity to recognise and celebrate the fantastic contribution that colleagues and volunteers make, whether in frontline teams, or working behind the scenes, to support you – our patients, families and communities.
“I would like to say a big thank you to the Shropshire Star for once again teaming up with us on this highly coveted award.”
Last year’s winner of the Shropshire Star Public Recognition Award was the team from Royal Shrewsbury Hospital’s ‘Short Stay’ Ward 22 which was nominated for going “over and above” as they cared for a patient at the end of his life.
The closing date for nominations is Friday 16 August. SaTH, which runs the Royal Shrewsbury Hospital (RSH) and the Princess Royal Hospital (PRH) in Telford, will hold its Trust Celebratory Awards on Friday 15 November.
