Lucie joined the Oaks as a newly qualified OT 6 months ago and in that short period she has gone from strength to strength. Lucie received outstanding 360 feedback at her 6 month probation which demonstrated her exceptional professional skill and also how valued she is by her colleagues from all disciplines. Lucie has volunteered to become the OT student co-ordinator for the South Yorkshire Region – this is a task which even experienced OT’s may feel daunted by, and yet Lucie has taken on this extra responsibility with enthusiasm and pride. Not only this, Lucie has also volunteered to be clinical supervisor to an OT apprentice from another Cygnet hospital who was in desperate need of a clinical supervisor (due to OT recruitment issues at their site) and she has excelled in this despite this being her first student. Lucie has been an incredible support to her supervisor and to the colleagues around her. She is an exceptional OT and it has been a pleasure to see her grow in skills in confidence. Lucie takes everything in her stride and embraces all tasks with positivity and enthusiasm, regardless of how challenging it may be. Lucie is progressing brilliantly through her preceptorship and she truly deserves this award.

The Outwood Night Team- We have had shifts consistently available due to being unable to recruit to them for a variety of reasons. Over the last year this team have worked so hard to ensure that the shifts are covered, they work together to ensure consistency for the residents as well as to support each other. Their hard work has meant that we very rarely run short and we always can meet the needs of the residents. They are a great team and a great support to the effective running of the service.
The work in service can sometimes go on forever at night, but not while Mr. Idris is working. He usually approaches each task with concentration and a sense of humour, and he never gives up until he ensures that it is finished. Mr. Idris frequently eases his coworkers with funny jokes and enjoys bringing them along. Weldone Mr Idris.

Lee recently spent 7 weeks at another Cygnet site to offer support and guidance as a TL. Lee worked extremely hard to share knowledge and experience to enhance others knowledge and help streamline working practises. Lee remained positive throughout despite additional travelling and being out of his comfort zone. Management are proud of Lee!
