We are in the last few days of our nomination period, with the submission form closing this Sunday 10 March.

If you have received excellent care, or someone has gone above and beyond for you or a loved one, let them know by nominating them for a STAR award. Everyone who is nominated will recieve a copy of their nomination to keep and be in the running to win the award.
This year we have 11 categories you can nominate in, with four brand new ones which reflect one or more of the qualities behind our six Trust values:
- Communication and compassion
- Inclusion and respect
- Teamwork and professionalism.
We are encouraging you to nominate a member of staff, team or volunteer from any of our hospital sites who have gone above and beyond to care for you or a loved one. Our shining stars who continue to improve and re-think the way we work to make sure all our patients receive excellent care every time.
