VIP Awards 2025 - have you nominated yet?
Nominations for the VIP Awards are now live!
Our Values in Practice (VIP) Awards allow colleagues, patients and members of the public to nominate staff, teams or volunteers for going above and beyond to provide outstanding service or care for patients, their carers and family members.
The awards recognise outstanding examples of our shared values of Caring, Open, Respectful, Responsible and Inclusive, with categories to celebrate colleagues and teams in both clinical and non-clinical roles.
The VIP Awards are a great opportunity to recognise the incredible work delivered by BCHC colleagues and volunteers.
This year, there are 12 categories in total in which you can nominate.
The Unsung Hero categories recognise individuals who are the 'backbone' of BCHC, and yet rarely in the spotlight. They may be a great support to other colleagues, have done something amazing for a patient or their family but in a humble and quiet way - this is your chance to shine a light on their achievement.
The Leader of the Year categories recognise individuals that inspire others through their leadership, in line with the 'Team BCHC Way'. They demonstrate a positive difference to you and/or your team - citing positive outcomes for colleagues, patients or service users.
The Team of the Year categories recognise the power of great team work and collaboration. You will need to demonstrate how the team has worked together to improve outcomes for patients, service users or colleagues.
Our Divisional Superstar categories truly reflect the huge breadth of our clinical services and the many different areas of expertise and experience within Team BCHC. We can't forget the corporate teams who work so hard to provide the back-up support in areas like recruitment, digital technology and finance.
Each year, judges comment that reading the nominations is an annual highlight, so let's get nominating!
