You’ve Got To Be In It To (Try And) Win It

For the second year running NHS Halton CCG has been shortlisted in three categories for a prestigious Health Service Journal (HSJ) award.  The categories we have been shortlisted in are:

·         Improving Environmental and Social Sustainability category for ‘Lead the Change’ (with Wellbeing Enterprises CIC and UnLtd).

·         Specialist Service Redesign category for ‘transforming St Luke’s care home’ (with Community Integrated Care and Halton Borough Council)

·         CCG of the Year

The winners will be announced at the finals, which will be held on 23 November 2016 at the Intercontinental O2, London.

We are extremely proud to be shortlisted for 3 HSJ Awards for the second year running.  The awards are judged by industry leaders, making them one of the most prestigious awards on the health calendar; so it is a huge honour for our work to be recognised in this way.  For 35 years the HSJ Awards, have recognised, celebrated, and promoted the finest achievements in NHS, and showcased them to the service’s most influential leaders.  Over that time the HSJ Awards have grown to become the most sought after accolade in British healthcare – and very probably the largest awards programme of its type in the world.  NHS Halton CCG, with  Wellbeing Enterprises CIC, won a HSJ Award in 2015 for Innovation in Primary Care.
