Recognizing excellence. Giving your AWE.
Nursing and hospital administrators have several methods of recognizing individual achievements. We developed an awards program to recognize excellence for an entire nursing unit. Our Award of Excellence uses rating factors to measure one unit against another. In a much heralded quarterly reception, strongly supported, funded, and attended by senior executives, the staff on the winning unit are complimented for their accomplishment. This program has reduced overtime, while improving productivity and quality of care.
