Congratulations Forget Me Nots 2019 HRT Innovation Award Winner

Congratulations to Ellie Newman and the Royal Perth Bentley Group Forget Me Nots who have today been announced as winners of the inaugural 2019 Health Round Table Innovation Award for Accelerating Innovation Through Collaboration.

The award acknowledges highly effective innovations from Australian and New Zealand ‘hospital heroes’, such as Ellie and the Forget Me Not volunteers.

This is a fantastic achievement and one that truly recognises the significant amount of work Ellie and the Forget Me Nots contribute towards improving the support services for our patients with dementia and delirium, and their families.

Thank you to Ellie and the many dedicated volunteers for the numerous hours of support they provide to our cognitively impaired patients and the outstanding contributions they have made, and continue to make, towards developing the Forget Me Not program at East Metropolitan Health Service.

Congratulations again Ellie and the Forget Me Nots.
