Kent & Medway Advanced Clinical Practice Forum wants to celebrate Advancing Clinical Practice that is occurring across our Integrated Care System. We want to celebrate colleagues who have demonstrated what it means to be an Advanced Clinical Practice and how that practice can support and benefit the patients we care for by a series of Awards.
Individuals can self-nominate or be nominated by their team or colleagues.
Please state which category you are nominating for and give a 300-word rationale that will be reviewed by the judging panel as to why you think you or the nominee should win this Award.
“Evidence consistently shows that multi-professional team working delivers better outcomes for patients and more effective and satisfying work for clinicians.”
Therefore nominations that show evidence of team-working and improved outcomes for people in your community will receive a higher weighting when being judged. It is recognised that the four pillars of advancing practice interlink and therefore reference to other pillars from the nominated category is expected.
