Tuesday 21st October 2008
A number of people with cardiac jobs have received recognition for their contribution to patient care and practice, it has been revealed.
In total, six nurses from the British Heart Foundation (BHF) were praised for their efforts in cardiac clinical practice, while two were identified as excellent BHF ambassadors and one was chosen as the outstanding performer of the year, Medical News Today reports.
Picking up the top accolade, Anne White - a cardiac specialist nurse at Cambridgeshire Primary Care Trust - was recognised for her contribution to the field over 13 years of working for the BHF.
Over the course of her career, she has established a patient support group and a cardiac rehabilitation service.
"Anne has given exceptional cardiac care over a long period of time, the benefits of which have been felt by patients, their families and colleagues," commented Cynthia Curtis, head of nurse education and events at the BHF.
Claiming to fund around 1,200 research projects, the BHF aims to tackle the causes of and improve the treatments for heart disease.
