The Annual Adult Social Care & Health Celebrating Success Awards recognising excellence in practice took place on 15th December 2022. The Awards were hosted by Professor Graeme Betts who was joined by Councillor Mariam Khan at the H Suite which was attended by over 60 staff. The Awards were also broadcast live via MS Teams which was watched by nearly 100 people!
We will not talk about the grand
finale which was a lot of fun (if you know, you know), thankfully we all have
fantastic day jobs!
This year, 18
nominations were received which featured individuals and teams who have made an
irrefutable impact on the citizens of Birmingham or in the support function of
staff providing services. The nomination
form is based on the ODP (Owning and Driving Performance) GROW Model and were
then scored by volunteers from the Citizen Involvement Team. Specific
indicators of excellence in practice included: embracing new ways of working;
being person centred; going the extra mile; making a positive impact and
working collaboratively with citizens & communities.
Nominations were then split into the following groups: Individual (non social work), Individual
(social work), Teams (social work) and Teams (non social work). All our nominees received a certificate.
The winners of each category received chocolates from Hotel
Chocolat as a token of appreciation and a “Thank
You”
