Long service recognition


Long Service Program

Each year, long service recipients who reach a milestone (from 5-55 years in five year increments in the previous calendar  year) are celebrated  for their continued commitment, dedication, and contributions to making our organization a great place to work and receive exceptional care. The Recognition team worked with site leads and champions to plan events and celebrations for over 4,000 staff , medical staff, and volunteers across the health authority who achie ve a long service milestone in 2023. Events and celebrations were held February through April 2024.  

Please see the Long Service FAQ.
