NHSGGC’s Regional Services staff praised at annual awards

NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde has celebrated the success of staff working in services provided to patients across the West of Scotland.

Four winners were named at the annual Regional Services awards, including a Senior Charge Nurse at the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre.

The Leader of the Year prize went to Lynsey Watt, Senior Charge Nurse in the Beatson’s B1 ward for Gynaecology and skin cancer patients.

She was described as having a “positive, can-do attitude”, with colleagues saying Lynsey’s dedication to person-centred care is significant and spans everyone she interacts with including patients, families and colleagues.

Lynsey was also praised for ensuring Wet Wet Wet star Marti Pellow visited the ward to meet one of her patients, who couldn’t get out of bed, when he was at the Beatson recently to raise awareness of breast cancer symptoms.
