Allied health clinicians who contribute to clinical education:
Excellence in allied health clinical education continues to become increasingly important due to numerous factors. These include:
The Award for Excellence in Nursing Education was first offered in 2009 in line with the Medical and Allied Health Award for Excellence in Education. This award was developed to recognise a nurse who has made a significant contribution to nursing education through their educational commitment to patients, colleagues and/or students. In addition, it recognises a nurse who is an outstanding role model and has had a positive influence on their team. This is a prestigious award to recognise a nurse who demonstrates excellence in nursing education.
This prestigious and long-standing award has been presented to exemplary teachers who have supported junior medical staff at Princess Alexandra Hospital (PAH) over the last 28 years. At PAH, resident education is recognised as a priority and this award not only highlights its importance but also promotes enthusiasm and excellence in clinical teaching in general. An ongoing commitment to resident teaching is paramount in producing high calibre doctors.
