Trust wants to know who your local health heroes are

A health trust wants to know who your NHS heroes are from hospital’s such as Spalding’s Johnson Hospital.

Lincolnshire Community Health Services NHS Trust (LCHS) is seeking nominations from patients and their loved ones to celebrate and recognise the achievements of its staff. 

The trust provides local community-based health care services across the county to help people live independently at home, including urgent treatment centres, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, speech and language services, community and district nursing, school-age immunisations and children’s therapy services.

It also provides services at four community hospitals including Spalding’s Johnson Hospital.

The trust says the award recognises outstanding teams and colleagues who improved patient experience or provided opportunities for patients and their loved ones to get involved in their care.

The winner will be revealed in November at the trust’s annual staff awards ceremony Celebrating Success 2021. The event will be held virtually due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Elaine Baylis, trust chair, said: “It’s been a demanding year for everyone, but our community staff continued to provide safe services for the people of Lincolnshire. They rose to the challenge of responding to the COVID-19 pandemic by adapting the way they work. 

“On the night, we will present eleven awards to our staff and volunteers celebrating their incredible work. Whether it was a clinical team member who offered compassionate care or a whole team that made a real difference – please nominate them and say thank you.”

If you have been receiving care from one of the trust’s community health services or community hospitals or visited one of the Lincolnshire Urgent Treatment Centres – the trust want to hear from you. Nominations can be submitted in the following ways:

Nominations are open until Wednesday September 15.
