Green Brain won a Highly Commended accolade in the Estates, Facilities and Systems Management category at the Leading Healthcare Awards 2020.

As well as receiving the Highly Commended award, Green Brain was a finalist in two other categories – Improving Outcomes, and Workplace Initiative of the Year. The awards results were revealed online last night (April 2).

Green Brain, a bespoke learning management system, was created with the help and input of HHFT staff. It has enabled HHFT to increase the accessibility of all trust core mandatory training via face-to-face training, and has enhanced the accessibility of e-learning. This has resulted in a sharp increase in HHFT’s overall compliance rates.

Tania Griffiths, HHFT Associate Director of Training and Operations, said: “Everyone at HHFT should be proud and delighted that Green Brain has received this Highly Commended award at the Leading Healthcare Awards.

“Winning this accolade, and being a finalist in two other categories, is positive news for HHFT at this challenging time for everyone.” 

Tania added: “By creating Green Brain, we have enabled staff to be empowered and engaged in a system they helped to create.

“By introducing a different way of learning, we have safeguarded and enhanced staff and patient safety. Green Brain implementation has transformed training at HHFT, making it easy, fun, and person-friendly.

“The success achieved so far within HHFT is allowing us to showcase Green Brain to other hospital trusts that have seen our successes in terms of engagement and staff involvement towards mandatory training and being empowered.”

Sponsored by CCube Solutions, the Leading Healthcare Awards celebrate, and share, great work across the health and care sectors.
