It is my absolute pleasure and privilege to share with you these photographs of our fabulous staff members who work
within the National High Secure Women’s Service at Rampton Hospital. Throughout the Summer months we ran a staff appreciation competition whereby staff and patients completed nomination forms to recognise and acknowledge those individuals who were felt to have gone above and beyond to support others throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We received over 100 nominations across the service, all the nominations were individually personalised and heart felt.
The winners and runners up all received Body Shop gifts
which were kindly funded by the Women’s Service management and multi-disciplinary team members. We are currently developing our own book of brilliance to showcase all the nominations and to serve as a reminder of all the good practice that has been highlighted during this challenging time.
