23 Sep 2024

St Vincent’s have been named finalists for the 2024 NSW Health Awards or their extraordinary efforts to improve the NSW public health system.

Now in its 26th year, the awards acknowledge the personalised, sustainable, and digitally enabled programs that contribute to the wellbeing of patients and the community.

The research led by Professor Louise Emmett is among 42 finalists from across the state competing for the Health Research Award, for their work in treating resistive prostate cancer.

NSW Health Secretary Susan Pearce AM said it is really exciting to celebrate the people and teams who are enriching health in millions of ways every day.

"These awards are a chance to recognise our incredible healthcare staff and volunteers, across the public health system," Ms Pearce said.

"I congratulate the finalists, but I also want to acknowledge the work being done across the system every day, by our teams of doctors, nurses, midwives, allied health and support staff."

NSW Health received 186 nominations across the 12 award categories.

The finalists and winners will be celebrated at the NSW Health Awards ceremony, which will be held on Thursday 24 October at the International Convention Centre in Sydney. It will also be livestreamed from 6pm.
