Team UHDB Award: QHB Children's Team
Our Children’s Team at Queen’s Hospital Burton have been recognised for the exceptional care and dedication they have provided to our younger patients throughout the Coronavirus pandemic.
In response to Covid-19, we combined our children’s services, bringing together our skilled workforces at Royal Derby Hospital and Queens’s Hospital Burton to provide safe care to children across Derbyshire and Staffordshire.
This week, the Children’s Team have returned to Queen’s Hospital Burton and have begun to reopen, following a temporary relocation to Royal Derby Hospital throughout the pandemic.
To thank the team for the work they have done throughout the pandemic; relocating sites, working with new teams, adapting to new surroundings, Duncan Bedford, Executive Managing Director at QHB visited the team on their first day back to the department to present them with a Team UHDB Making a Difference Award.
Vicki Baldwin, Matron for Paediatric inpatients, added: “The team have done brilliantly and adapted to everything that has been thrown at them. It hasn’t always been plain sailing but I am proud of them for what they have achieved throughout these difficult times.”
