Advisory Committee on Clinical Excellence Awards (ACCEA)
|
The NHS Consultants' Awards Scheme |
Please note the
closing date for the 2009 National Clinical Excellence Awards Round will be Friday
19 December 2008. All fully completed applications, ranked lists from employers,
nominating bodies and specialist societies must be received by 5pm on that date.
The forms and guides have been published; it is expected that the on-line application
system will open in early October. | The Advisory
Committee on Clinical Excellence Awards (ACCEA) is an independent, advisory NDPB
and succeeded the Advisory Committee on Distinction Awards (ACDA). Clinical
Excellence awards are given to recognise and reward the exceptional contribution
of NHS consultants, over and above that normally expected in a job, to the values
and goals of the NHS and to patient care. ACCEA will operate the arrangements
which replaced discretionary points and distinction awards with a single, more
graduated scheme comprising both local and national elements known as the Clinical
Excellence Awards Scheme. The scheme operates under: - fair and
uniform criteria,
- transparent and equitable processes and
- clear
operational frameworks.
A helpline is available to help with any
queries. The number is: 020 7972 3956 and will be staffed between 10.00 - 12.00
and 14.00 - 16.00. Note: ACCEA CANNOT GUARANTEE to answer enquiries to this
number outside these hours.
