Patient Safety Awards shortlist announced

There were over 650 submissions for staff and organisations showing their continued commitment to improving patient safety across the NHS and enthusiasm to share innovation.

With increased pressure to deliver services with restricted budgets, it is even more important this year to recognise and reward outstanding practice and shine a spotlight on the achievements of not only the individuals and teams concerned, but organisations as a whole.

HSJ editor Alastair McLellan and Nursing Times editor Jenni Middleton said: “Congratulations to the finalists of the Patient Safety Awards 2016. This year the awards really highlight those organisations who are not only doing their day jobs, but going above and beyond every day to deliver exceptional patient care and safety. The projects submitted demonstrate those who are constantly innovating and overcoming challenges to put patients’ needs first.”

The winners will be announced at a ceremony on 5 July in Manchester.
