We are delighted to announce that Northumbria Primary Care has been shortlisted for Primary and Community Care Provider of the Year at 2022’s Health Service Journal Awards.
One of the most esteemed honours in the healthcare sector, the HSJ Awards shine a light on the outstanding efforts and achievements teams across the sector deliver. The 2022 awards will focus on sharing best practice, improving patient outcomes, and innovating drivers of better service, whilst also providing a well-deserved thanks to the sector.
With over 1000 applicants, we feel very fortunate to be recognised among a number of pioneering and forward-thinking primary care teams.
We’re over the moon to receive the nomination. Everyone across NPC has worked very hard over the last year to provide our patients with the best care possible and it’s great to receive recognition for that. Whilst we’re obviously hopeful to take home the prize, the nomination is a fantastic indicator of how far we’ve come and where we’re going as as an organisation.
David Hedgcock, Managing Director at Northumbria Primary Care
The winner will be announced at the HSJ Awards show on November 17th in London. Congratulations to our fellow nominees and we look forward to seeing you all at the end of the year.
