About our staff awards 

Our staff awards, known as the REACH Awards, stand for Recognition of Excellence and Achievement in Community Healthcare. The awards are a great opportunity to come together and celebrate the wonderful work of individuals and teams across the trust. 

As part of our award ceremony, we are invite the public to submit nominations for two categories: Patient Choice Award and Volunteer of the Year Award. 

Find full details below. If you have any questions, please contact StaffEngagement@nchc.nhs.uk

 

Patient Choice Award 

This award gives patients, families, and carers the chance to nominate an individual or team who has provided outstanding care or support, often going the extra mile to ensure patients have a positive experience with our service. 

Our dedicated teams deliver NHS community and inpatient services across the county every single day. We think they all deserve to be recognised for their hard work, but we know there are many who go beyond the call of duty for the people who need them. 

Patients, families, and carers can nominate any member of staff for this award. It could be following care during an outpatient appointment, community visit, or a longer hospital stay. 

 

This award is kindly sponsored by the NCH&C Charitable Fund.

Volunteer of the Year Award 

Volunteers are an integral part of NCH&C  and we would like to recognise their efforts and commitment. This award celebrates their achievements and the valuable contribution they make to our services.

This award is open to anyone who works for NCH&C in an unpaid capacity, and all members of the public and NCH&C staff are invited to submit a nomination.
