GUH announces "Powering Kindness" programme results

Galway University Hospital’s Health and Wellbeing Division recently ran a “Powering Kindness” programme at the hospital asking staff to nominate those colleagues who go above and beyond the call of duty in the course of their work. There was a fantastic response from across services in the hospital with many examples of staff going that extra step to support and facilitate both patients and their colleagues.

The campaign’s overall winner was Helen Mulryan, Clinical Nurse Manager, on St. Anthony’s Ward. Helen was nominated in recognition of her positive influence and caring behaviour towards the health and wellbeing of her student nurses while in the hospital on their clinical placement. Nominating Helen, colleagues said, “despite juggling the demands of a busy medical ward, Helen’s door is always open, providing a supportive environment and listening ear to her student nurses”.
