Submitting a nomination

Anyone can submit a nomination using the form shown below, this includes caregivers, patients, their families, volunteers and visitors to the hospital. 
 
All caregivers, excluding the senior executive team, are eligible to be nominated for Caregiver of the Month. This includes clinical and non-clinical caregivers, volunteers and casuals. 
 
Nominations should outline how a caregiver contributes to the organisation; such as how they  demonstrate  commitment to their role, go over and above to support others and demonstrate and model the Values of St John of God Health Care on a regular basis. 
 
Please include as much information as possible to support your nomination. Keep in mind that the selection panel may not know the person you are nominating, so it is important to clearly explain why you feel the caregiver is deserving. 
 
If you are a caregiver please keep in mind it is important to provide specific examples on how an individual regularly demonstrates their commitment to the Values and Service Ethos.
