NTW Solutions Finance Team has been awarded the prestigious Small Team of the Year Award at the HFMA Awards. The award recognises the contribution that the finance team has made in promoting and improving teamwork, innovation, collaboration, wellbeing and inclusion. In addition, Dave Palmer, a longstanding member of the team was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award.
The HFMA Awards are organised by the Healthcare Financial Management Association (HFMA) which is the professional body for finance staff in healthcare. The awards celebrate innovation and excellence in healthcare finance. The Small Team of the Year Award is one of the most coveted awards in the programme.
The judges were impressed by how the finance team supported quality and excellence. The team demonstrated a strong commitment to engaging with clinical and operational colleagues, providing timely and accurate financial information, and delivering savings and efficiencies without compromising on patient care.
The lifetime achievement award recognises an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to healthcare finance throughout their career. Dave is an invaluable member of the team and his knowledge is second to none and he is always willing to share that knowledge and help others.
It is a real honour to receive these coveted awards. It is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and professionalism of our finance team and are proud of what they have achieved in the last year. We would like to thank our colleagues across NTW Solutions and CNTW for their support and collaboration.
"This is a great testament to the hard work and effort the team have demonstrated in their day to day work, in maintaining a quality service to all. Everyone across all the finance teams should take pride in this achievement as no matter how small a task done by any member of the finance family it all helps in ensuring the delivery of the service we provide and that we can be proud of."
Shaun Dixon, Head of Finance
