Nominations for the Awards have now closed.
The NSW Health Excellence in Nursing and Midwifery Awards is an important annual event that acknowledges the significant skill, passion and valued contributions of nurses and midwives from across NSW Health.
Like many events, we’ve re-imagined the format of the Awards in 2020 to ensure the best and brightest nurses and midwives in NSW are celebrated in a COVID-safe way. The Awards will be presented in an online format on 26th November at 2pm (AEST). All nurses and midwives are encouraged to ‘attend’ online and hear about the amazing work of our peers. Check back here later for how to watch the ceremony.
