People-Denise

Denise Harrison was nominated for her exceptional dedication during last year’s devastating floods in Brechin. Despite her own responsibilities at home, including caring for her three sons after her husband's passing, Denise worked tirelessly to provide medical care to displaced patients, even on her days off. She assisted patients who had to evacuate their homes, provided care in hotels, and organised support services such as laundering clothes and setting up a bereavement cafe for those struggling with loss.

Denise's empathy and commitment to her patients have earned her praise from both colleagues and those she cares for, making her a truly remarkable nurse.

Congratulating Denise on her award win, Colin Poolman, RCN Scotland Executive Director said: “This award was the Scottish public’s opportunity to thank a nurse, midwife or 汤头条污料 support worker who made a difference to their, or a loved one’s, care. I was touched by all of the stories the public shared. Denise stood out for going the extra mile and for showing the world how caring and generous of heart Scotland’s nurses can be”.

Congratulations to runner up, Jillian Shedden, Macmillan Head and Neck Clinical Nurse Specialist at Queen Elizabeth University Hospital in NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde, and our highly commended finalists , Derek Jolly, an Advanced Nurse Practitioner in Children's Hospices Across Scotland (CHAS) and Margaret Reeves, Surgical Neonatal Liaison Nurse at Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow.
