Team UHDB Award: Facilities
After months of hard work providing colleagues with everything from free meals and parking to ensuring relevant signage is in place across our hospitals, our fantastic Facilities Team has been recognised with a Team UHDB Award.
The team has worked tirelessly over the past few months, going above and beyond to assist in the Trust’s response to COVID-19.
Facilities have been heavily involved in a number of projects, not least to mention ensuring members of #TeamUHDB could access free parking and get a free meal and drink for a number of weeks, installing protective screens and social distancing signs across our five sites, as well as implementing the office and outpatients risk reduction checklist.
They have been at the forefront of a number of other projects to keep our spaces safe for staff, patients and visitors.
On presenting the team with their award, CEO Gavin Boyle said: “You cover all parts of the organisation and help to keep the show on the road. You’ve done lots of things that aren’t in the job description, including offering free food to colleagues and free car parking.
“The team has done so many things that has made the last three months possible and on behalf of the Board, we’d just like to say thank you.”
Paul Brooks, Director of Estates, Facilities and Patient Experience, said: “This really does mean a lot to us and I’m sure everyone in our teams across the Trust will really appreciate this. Thank you.”
