Patients, visitors and staff can nominate staff and volunteers from across the organisation for the care or service that they provide.

Winners will be announced in a ceremony to be held on Wednesday, May 18.

Calum Campbell, chief executive, said: “We have a lot of hard working and dedicated staff throughout Lanarkshire, who provide an exceptional standard of care to patients on a daily basis.

NHS staff are often present at some of the most challenging events in a person’s life and the care that they give in these times can make a lasting impression on a patient, their family and carers.
