Audit Prizes
Prizes presented to staff that are judged to have
produced/presented the best audits. The hospital's annual Research
& Audit Open Day is held annually. This is an established
but a unique event at Southend Hospital and is a great opportunity
for medical, nursing and allied health professional staff from all
specialties across the Trust, who might not normally get to engage
or work with each other, to spend half a day at an event that
encourages discussion, research and the sharing of learning to
improve patient care. The presentation day is preceded by posters
of audits being displayed in the Education Centre for staff to
view.
