Congratulations to Langeswary Sathavism, a Health Care Assistant on the Duke of Gloucester ward at RNOH, who has been awarded a Cavell Star Award.
Langeswary was presented with the award by Sanila Gurung, Ward Manager DoG, and Lynda St Cyr, Band 2 to Band 4 Educator, on 8 January 2024.
The Cavell Star Awards are given to nurses, midwives, nursing associates and healthcare assistants who shine bright and show exceptional care to one of three groups; colleagues, patients, or patients' families.
Colleagues nominated Langeswary for delivering exceptional patient care.
The award is named after Edith Cavell, a British nurse during the First World War. She is celebrated for saving the lives of soldiers from both sides and helping over 200 Allied soldiers escape from German-occupied Belgium. The Germans executed her in October 1915, but her legacy remains in recognising the very best in compassionate care.
