ROSE Awards for outstanding healthcare assistant | ROSE Award

ROSE Award

Recognising Our Staff Excellence (ROSE) awards aim to celebrate the excellence in care and recognise the outstanding contribution made by our clinical healthcare support workers, allied health professions (AHPs), pharmacists, scientists and other non-nursing or medical clinical registrants.
 
 
Have you received fantastic care or support from one of our many specialist staff in the hospital? Perhaps the Occupational Therapist (OT) in fracture clinic made a difference to your care, a radiographer who put you at ease during a scan or Xray or do you work with one of our colleagues who always makes a difference to patients and has exemplary care values. Perhaps one of our behind-the-scenes teams, our Operating department practitioners (ODP’s) who support you in theatres, a pharmacist who ensures our patients receive the right medications or even our highly specialist pathology scientists who make use their skills in specialist testing to inform a clinical decision. Our healthcare support workers who complement our teams. The assistant practice physio who welcomed you to joint school or the healthcare assistant on the ward who spent time listening to a patient worries or concerns or perhaps the phlebotomist who took your blood today and made you feel relaxed and safe.
 
Make a difference to one of our specialist staff or to a colleague by showcasing their outstanding contribution to care, by nominating them for a ROSE Award.
 
To say thank you to a nurse or midwife please nominate them for a Daisy Award.  
 
These awards provide recognition for colleagues that have gone above and beyond, rewarding excellent care, and demonstrating positive patient experience.

ROSE Awards for outstanding healthcare assistant

Hannah with her award

A healthcare assistant has won a Kettering General Hospital ROSE Award for the way she supported a patient with an infection receiving palliative care.

Hannah Medlicott, who works in gynaecology, went above and beyond to support both the patient and her family.

Her nominator wrote: “Even though we have only known Hannah for a few days she has shown both my mum, and myself, compassion, and such kindness words cannot explain how l feel about her.

“She is dedicated to her job and will make a fantastic nurse and would be an asset to any department she works in. She deserves every success.

“There aren’t many people who come into your life who make such an impression but Hannah certainly has and at such a difficult time for us.

“She has talked to mum in the most compassionate way. Made her laugh and feel relaxed and offered me support. She has really gone well above and beyond.”

ROSE stands for Recognising Our Staff Excellence (ROSE) and celebrates care delivered by staff where they show empathy, compassion, and dedication, that goes beyond the normal call of duty.

Staff who can be nominated include clinical healthcare support workers, allied health professions (AHPs), such as therapists, operating department practitioners, and radiographers. The awards also include pharmacists, scientists, and other non-nursing or non-medical clinical registrants.

  KGH Interim Director of Nursing, Robin Binks, said: “Hannah has shown outstanding compassion, kindness and support for her patient and her patient’s family.

“She clearly made a very powerful positive impression on them by delivering care focussed on their needs and is a worthy recipient of the ROSE Award.
