Please refer to our frequently asked questions about the HSJ Awards below. If your query is not answered, then please CONTACT US.
A: There is no charge for submitting your work into the HSJ Awards
A: There are 6 main questions each requiring a maximum of 200 words, plus some basic single line questions. Plus there is an upload opportunity to submit supporting evidence – entry forms for Mental Health Provider, Acute or Specialist Trust and Primary and Community Care Provider are longer for some questions.
A: Project based entries are required to be currently active or if completed to have been completed within the past 18 months. People nominated for specific awards should either be in post or should have left their post no longer than 18 months prior. Equally evidence for any submitted entries should be current or relevant to the past 18 months. Entries previously submitted in the HSJ Awards should have a significant update, change of circumstance or result.
A: All private organisations are welcome to submit entries. Most categories are designed to recognise work conducted within public sector organisations and therefore in most circumstances only the NHS healthcare provider will be recognised. However we encourage private organisations to submit projects on behalf of their healthcare clients. Please check eligibility or with our team if you are not sure.
A: All entries submitted to the HSJ Awards will be read by our appointed judges, editorial staff and internal awards administrative teams. If you have specific requirements with regards to confidentiality please call our team to discuss and it’s possible that arrangements can be made for you. HSJ would like to share best practice with our community and part of the agreement you enter in to with HSJ Awards to share your projects, people and organisations on our HSJ Solutions platform. However you are welcome to opt out of this. For further clarification please call our team.
