The great work that is happening every day across the health service was recently showcased and celebrated at the annual Health Service Excellence Awards.

Designed to encourage and inspire people to develop better health services, the awards also promote shared learning for other teams through awards success stories. The winning project in the category of “Innovation in Service Delivery” was a speech and language service usually delivered in a hospital, but through innovation was extended to the community in the Mid-West. The MWCH Mobile Fibreoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallowing (FEES) Service was the award winner for the Mid West Community Healthcare Speech and Language Therapy Services.
