Hard Work

I would like to take a moment to formally recognise and commend two of our dedicated staff members Arran Wardle and Gemma Rhodes for their exceptional support and commitment in facilitating a truly heart-warming and significant experience for one of our patients.

Recently, these staff members supported a gentleman in leaving the hospital for a visit to McDonald’s—his first community outing in over six years. This outing was not only incident-free but filled with joy, laughter, and a sense of freedom that the patient had not experienced in a very long time. He was belly laughing to the music playing in the van, a moment that deeply moved everyone involved.

This achievement is a testament to the hard work, patience, and compassionate care these staff members have consistently shown. Their efforts have made a profound difference in this gentleman’s life, and this milestone reflects the positive impact of their dedication.

Please join me in acknowledging and celebrating their outstanding contribution. It is moments like these that truly highlight the value of the work we do and the incredible people who make it possible.

This nomination is for the hard work you put in all of the time keeping the floor staffed well and supporting staff and patients in their development. This nomination in particular is for the hard work put in to getting a patient who has significant difficulties to the dentist and supporting him to have the required treatment. This took a lot of hard work, organisation, and perseverance from you and the team you were leading for a successful outcome. This not only improved the patients quality of life but also improved the ward environment as a whole. Your hard work is always recognised and should be celebrated 🙂
