Our World Class Colleagues recognition scheme was launched in January 2016 to recognise excellent care and service all year round.
It gives you the opportunity to highlight an individual or a team who have provided amazing care or service.
Nominations are open for any member of staff.
Once a quarter, one winner will be picked out of all our nominees to collect their certificate and a special badge from the Trust Board.
Each nominee is also automatically entered into consideration for our annual Outstanding Service and Care Awards.

We strongly advise all patients use our new online appointment system before attending for a blood test to avoid any disappointment. The new service helps patients, their carers and family members to plan their hospital visit better, helping to reduce clinic waiting times and enabling patients to be seen much more quickly.
Walk-in appointments remain available dependent on availability, however you may have to wait for the next available appointment time. Please note that walk-in patients will be given an approximate time slot and this may vary.
