Staff Recognition Awards 2018
Improving Patient Experience Award
Presented by Pauline Scully, Deputy Chief Operating Officer
As the people we in Oxford Health care for, service users are at the centre of our thoughts and actions. We are committed to making sure we provide them with the best possible care. This is why we have created an award that only service users, carers or their families can vote for.
The Improving Patient Experience Award offers service users, carers and their families the opportunity to recognise the outstanding care and support given to them, by a member of staff or a team, that they feel has made a real difference to their experience.
Pauline said:
“I am especially delighted to present this award as it is nomination by the people we care for and serve.”
