The Chief Nursing Officer Gold Award is one of the highest honours that can be bestowed upon nurses and care workers in England. Developed by NHS England, these awards acknowledge and reward the significant and outstanding contributions made by individuals in the social care and nursing sectors. The Gold Award specifically recognises exceptional achievements and performance within a nurse’s sphere of practice, which can encompass clinical practice, education, research, or leadership.
The CNO Gold Award holds immense importance for several reasons:
