Our staff go above and beyond every day and we are proud to be recognised for this work through receiving regional and national awards.
We celebrate and recognise the hard work and dedication of our staff through various reward and recognition schemes, including our Hidden Heroes, STAR Awards, Staff Excellence Awards and Long Service Awards.
Staff are encouraged to nominate themselves or others for national awards, and many have been shortlisted for a number of awards across the country.
We hold an annual family fun day in Swindon, that we call ‘Great West Fest’.
This is an opportunity to say a huge thank you to every single member of staff for all of the hard work they do throughout the year, and to their family and friends for their continued support.
Hidden Heroes is a dedicated platform to recognise our heroic staff and volunteers who put the ‘Great’ in Great Western Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.
We hear such wonderful stories about our staff and this is a great way to capture our everyday successes.
Our staff strive for excellence, and we encourage and support them to shout about the great work they're doing by nominating themselves or others for national awards.
As a result, employees of the Trust have been shortlisted for a number of awards across the country.
We recognise the staff who choose to have a long and successful career at Great Western Hospitals with long service awards and retirement awards.
As a token of our appreciation, we recognise all of our staff that complete over 25 years’ service with a commemorative certificate.
Our annual awards ceremony recognises the hard work and dedication shown by staff across our Trust.
With over ten awards up for grabs, the event is a great way to spend the evening with your team and other departments, celebrating our staff.
The STAR of the Month award is a special award linked to our Trust values - Service, Teamwork, Ambition, and Respect (STAR).
Staff nominate their colleagues who demonstrate the values in their everyday work and a winner is chosen every month.
