GV Healthcare have recently launched the National MyCleaning Awards in association with NHS England, with entries open now. That same partnership will also be re-launching the National MyPorter Awards later this month (October).
The MyPorter Awards successfully launched two years’ ago and has grown since its initial beginnings, shining a spotlight on the great work of portering teams across the country. The Awards have raised the profile of portering as a whole, and are now aiming for the same successes with cleaning. Both the cleaning awards and the portering awards are open to any relevant team member within the UK & Ireland and will see separate live awards events take place in London in late February. Categories for The National MyCleaning Awards include: Domestic of The Year (MyCleaning Award), Lifetime Achievement, Healthcare Cleaning Team of The Year, Leadership of The Year, Newcomer of The Year and Auditor of The Year (MyAudit Award).
The awards will be judged by members of NHSE’s national estates and facilities team including Emma Brookes, Head of Soft FM Strategy and Operation and Philip Shelley, Senior Operational & Policy Manager Soft FM, who said: “We’re proud to be working alongside GV Healthcare to give national recognition to hardworking cleaners and porters for the valuable work they do day in, day out for the NHS. Our hopes are to shine a spotlight on the vital work they do and we would encourage as many cleaning and portering teams as possible to get their nominations in”.
Everybody deserves their day to be praised and appreciated and the unsung heroes of the NHS such as non-clinical staff like Porters and Healthcare Domestics/Cleaners are no different – that is the belief of GV Healthcare, creators of software solutions which help these very people.
Matt Wright, CEO at Global View said: “We develop our solutions in a highly collaborative way. This has provided us with access to the teams and to their stories. We felt we needed to showcase the work the Porters and Domestics are doing – hence the awards. Their efforts are vital and should not go un-noticed”.
Estates and Facilities teams are being encouraged to send in their nominations now and help celebrate those deserving of extra praise.
