TWO nurses from Bradford District Care NHS Foundation Trust have been given the prestigious Queen’s Nurse award by the Queen’s Nursing Institute at a ceremony in London.
Melanie Tanner, the trust’s clinical lead for children’s services, and Rebecca Bentley, acting head of nursing, have both been recognised for their dedication to high standards of patient care, learning and leadership.
The Queen’s Nurse programme honours nurses who have shown a high level of commitment to patient-centred values and brings together community nurses who want to develop their professional skills.
Both were presented with the title at the award ceremony, which was also attended by actor Stephen McGann, who plays the hardworking Doctor Turner in BBC drama Call the Midwife. Melanie and Rebecca are pictured at the ceremony.
