Residents are being urged to nominate their local health heroes for NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde’s newly launched Excellence Awards.
The health board is calling on members of the public to nominate staff who go above and beyond to ensure patients and their families receive the optimum care.

Chairman John Brown said: “People in West Dunbartonshire have a great track record in nominating their local health heroes and we want this to continue this year with lots of new nominations for the Vale and Health and Social Care Partnership staff.
“It might be the nurse who cared for your elderly mum while she was seriously ill, the doctor who went the extra mile to get you the latest treatment or even the midwife who gave you the strength to go on after 24 hours in labour.

“They are all special and the Excellence Awards are designed to recognise this. It’s not just about doctors and nurses either.
“It might be the porter who made you smile and helped you through a difficult moment, or a play assistant who entertained your child before her operation.
“These are the real people of the NHS and we want to hear why you think they are special.”
