Our partnership with Newcastle Hospitals has been nominated for an award

We’re very proud that our partnership with Newcastle Hospitals has been nominated for this year’s Celebrating Excellence Awards.

This is in recognition for the partnership delivery of the Tobacco Dependency Treatment Service in hospitals in Newcastle.

Last year, Healthworks were successful in securing the tender to lead on the Tobacco Dependency Treatment Service in Newcastle upon Tyne Hospitals (NUTH). This has resulted in a team of trained advisors from Healthworks working within the Trust to deliver the service to patients across Acute and Maternity Settings. After successfully piloting the service, it is now being delivered at capacity.  The team of Healthworks advisors’ support patients with tobacco dependence, offering them bespoke behavioural support and prescribed Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT).

It’s such an achievement to have this partnership work recognised by the awards body and we’ll keep you posted about the outcome.

Well done to everyone involved in making this service so successful!
