Trust staff recognised in Edel Corr Awards

There were two winners and a special merit prize this year for the Southern Trust’s ‘Edel Corr Award for Outstanding Compassionate Care.'

Edel Corr was a highly esteemed nursing colleague, who sadly passed away in 2021 and this annual award has been established in her honour.

The panel had a very difficult task judging the nominations and would like to acknowledge and congratulate everyone who was nominated.

The Edel Corr Special Merit Award was presented to Patrick McElhatton, a porter with an amazing 50 years’ service in South Tyrone Hospital. Pat’s nominators described his calming nature, is always organised and was true model for new staff in his department.
