Staff shine bright at third annual University Hospital Dorset awards

Uplifting examples of inspiring care, teamwork and leadership were celebrated at University Hospital Dorset’s (UHD) third annual awards.

More than 360 members of staff and hospital volunteers attended the event at The Pavilion in Bournemouth to hear how the finalists were placed in each of 14 categories.

They were also joined by patients and the local community who put forward staff for recognition.

This year’s awards scheme received over 900 nominations.

Chief Executive, Siobhan Harrington, said: “The awards are a fantastic opportunity to recognise the incredible teams across our Trust.

“Their hard work and commitment are invaluable.

“During this period of transformation, it’s great to be able to come together and celebrate all that is great about UHD.

“We all come to work to provide the very best care for our patients, and special events like this give us an opportunity to recognise the impact we have.

“A huge thank you to all patients and colleagues who made a nomination, and to our UHD NHS Charity, Locum’s Nest and IHP for supporting this brilliant evening.”
