The Patient Choice Award is part of Bristol NHS Foundation Trust’s (BFT) annual staff awards and aims to celebrate exceptional care, compassion, and commitment from staff across Bristol and Weston. The launch of the award follows the recent merger that created one of the largest NHS trusts in the country, now employing more than 28,000 staff. Eligible services for the award include those delivered at Bristol Royal Infirmary, Southmead Hospital, Weston General Hospital, and various community and satellite services.

Shortlisted nominees will be honoured alongside fellow staff members at this year’s trust awards ceremony.
