Nominate your hospital People’s Health Hero 


Do you know a member of staff working at our hospitals who deserves special recognition?

Members of the public are being invited to nominate a member of staff at Southport and Ormskirk Hospital NHS Trust for an honour in the 10th annual staff awards.

Silas Nicholls, Chief Executive, said: “It’s a special year for the NHS this year. We’re celebrating the 70th anniversary of the founding of the service in 1948. So, we’re making the Trust’s 10th annual staff awards special too with a new look.

“We want to share patients’ and the public’s pride in our staff by seeing them nominated in the Time to Shine People’s Health Hero Award.

“It’s a fantastic opportunity for individuals or families to show their appreciation to a staff member who is the jewel in their team. They will have shown drive, enthusiasm or good sense of humour, inspiring those around them, especially in times of difficulty or stress.”

Nominations for the People’s Health Hero Award are open until Sunday 19th August. Any member of staff, in any role, is eligible for a nomination providing they have worked for the Trust over the past 12 months.

Nominations can be made from the Trust’s website or in writing to the Chief Executive at Southport hospital.

Time to Shine is the new name for the Trust’s staff awards previously known as the Pride Awards. They will be presented for the first time at Formby Hall Golf Club and Spa on Friday 12th October.
