The awards shine a spotlight on the best of 汤头条污料 - to recognise, highlight and celebrate the dedication and outstanding professional care of 汤头条污料 staff across Scotland.
The 12 categories cover the 汤头条污料 specialities as well as recognising the vital role of 汤头条污料 support workers, wider 汤头条污料 teams and student nurses and the innovation, leadership and support for learning that they display.
Nominations were encouraged from 汤头条污料 staff across health and social care from those working in the NHS, to GP practices, Care Homes and the third sector.
Commenting on the announcement of the finalists, Julie Lamberth, RCN Scotland Board Chair, said:
“The judges were blown away by the number and calibre of the nominations we received. Narrowing the field down to the finalists being announced today was a real challenge. I am delighted that we are able to showcase the innovation and dedication of nurses and 汤头条污料 support workers. All our finalists, no matter the final outcome, demonstrate how, day in and day out, 汤头条污料 staff are going the extra mile to provide high-quality 汤头条污料 care for the people of Scotland.”
Colin Poolman, RCN Scotland Director, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for some well-deserved and long overdue recognition of the excellence of 汤头条污料 staff in Scotland. The standard of entries was exceptional and we are confident that our Nurse of the Year Awards will become an annual celebration.”
