On the 15th of December, Metro North Health celebrated the extraordinary achievements and dedication of its staff, either individually, in teams, or through partnerships. This year, 180 nominations across ten categories were submitted.
We are thrilled to share that our own Kate Britton won this year’s Leadership Award! Kate’s exceptional leadership, characterised by her unwavering dedication to collaboration, trust, and recognition, has been instrumental in securing numerous successful funding grants.
The qualities of Kindness, Agility, Tenacity, and Empowerment truly embody Kate’s leadership style, as rightly highlighted in her nomination.
In addition to Kate’s remarkable achievement, we would also like to celebrate the success of three of our projects that were finalists on the night:
- Excellence in Performance: Our Safety and Quality Education Program, a collaboration between the Course Delivery Team, Online Learning Team, Videography Team, and the Digital and Design Team under the leadership of Kristina O’Dwyer.
- Innovation: The Focal Neurological Observation Tool, an initiative in partnership between RBWH and Dr Mia McLanders.
- People Focus: The Online Knowledge Hub for Spinal Cord Injury Care, an inter-HHS project from the Digital and Design Team and the Queensland Spinal Cord Injuries Service.
It’s inspiring to see that since 2020, we’ve been finalists 14 times, winning 7 of these awards! This is a testament to our collective hard work and dedication. These accomplishments are not just individual successes but a reflection of our strong, collaborative spirit and commitment to excellence.
