Celebrating Loyal Service at DHU 💙

Following our October 2026 Loyal Service Awards, led by our Chief Executive, Stephen Bateman, we were reminded of the compassion, commitment and care our colleagues bring to DHU every day. It was an emotional and inspiring celebration, giving us a moment to reflect on the difference we make together.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing stories from colleagues who have recently celebrated milestone years of service with us. Next up, we’re celebrating colleagues who have reached five years of service:

• Natalie Alton, Community Healthcare Assistant
• Bernice Barber, Clinical Trainer
• Anna Lehmann, Operational Shift Lead
• Sharon Griffiths, Clinical Governance Assistant
• Emily Maksoud, Pharmacy Lead

Here’s what they shared about their experiences, highlights and what has inspired them throughout their journey with us.

Yesterday marked one year since DHU Healthcare began delivering services at Corby Urgent Treatment Centre. 🎉

This milestone is not only a celebration of the care we provide to our patients, but also an opportunity to recognise our dedicated colleagues and the local community who have supported us throughout our first year. 💚

Reiss Bond, Director of Urgent and Emergency Care UTC, said:

“I want to personally thank every colleague for their hard work and commitment over the past year.

“I’d also like to thank our patients and the wider Corby community for welcoming us and supporting the developments we’ve made to the service.

“I look forward to building on our achievements and continuing to make a positive difference to the people of Corby in the years ahead.”

We've united DHU Social Prescriber Rita Blight with her UHUK Award, in recognition for her work in bringing the incredible Sip and Support Service to life in Leicester. 🏆

The service provides a welcoming space for people in the community around the Heron GP Surgery to talk about whatever is on their mind to GPs and Healthcare Assistants who volunteer their time. 🧑‍⚕️

Winning a Silver award in the Making a Difference category, it shows what it means to the local community and our patients at Heron - you can read more about it via the link below.🥈

Here's Rita, who couldn't be there on the day, receiving her award from DHU's Director of Primary Care Jo Lacey - congratulations to Rita and the team for making this happen for our patients.🎉

📌 3 KEY REASONS YOUR FLU JAB MATTERS:

✅ High Movement = High Risk: crossing between departments or sites makes it easy to transport viruses to different patient groups without knowing it.

✅ Hidden Vulnerabilities: health risks aren't always visible. Many individuals have unseen underlying conditions or live with vulnerable family members at home.

✅ Protecting the Whole Team: vaccination shields your teammates as much as your patients, keeping essential services running smoothly all winter long.

No matter your job title or where you're based, getting vaccinated is the single most effective way to break the chain of infection. 🔗❌

💙 Stay strong. Get your flu vaccination today.

Care with us doesn’t stop when you leave the building.

Jack, an Advanced Practitioner at our Loughborough Urgent Treatment Centre, has joined forces with DHU colleagues Margaret and Rhian to help get medical equipment and supplies to people in Ukraine who need them.

Working with City Hub Ukraine, the team is helping ensure equipment that is no longer needed at DHU can still serve a valuable purpose, supporting medical care for civilians and soldiers injured during the ongoing war.

🌍 It’s a great example of our social impact in action – supporting people beyond the communities we serve every day, while reducing waste and making better use of resources.

A huge thank you to Jack, Margaret and Rhian for helping turn equipment that might otherwise go to waste into something that can support others.

Patients at DHU’s Heron GP practice can now choose a digital receptionist, Andi, when calling for an appointment.

The system allows patients to share information about their health needs without having to wait on the phone, helping the clinical team prioritise responses based on clinical need.

🩺 Andi is an additional way to access care, alongside the reception team, walk-in access and the online Anima system. Patients can still choose to speak to a receptionist at any point.

Find out how this new approach is helping improve access to appointments and reduce waiting times. 👇
