UHL Group is a strong supporter of staff who contribute to defence services, acknowledging the invaluable skills, leadership, and resilience they provide to both the Armed Forces and healthcare.
Armed Forces Week (23-28 June) enables us to pay tribute to colleagues who serve, or who have served in our Armed Forces and recognise their commitment to our country, which represents the selflessness and dedication that inspires colleagues and patients alike.
Aintree, Broadgreen and Royal Liverpool University Hospitals have recently achieved reaccreditation as an ERS Defence Gold Holder for a further five years and Liverpool Women’s University Hospital are actively working towards Gold.
This strengthens our reputation as a leading advocate for the Armed Forces community. It is a fantastic achievement and testament to the hard work and effort that has enabled us to reach this milestone.
Liverpool University Hospitals has also been awarded the coveted Veterans Aware accreditation, recognising the Trust’s dedication to supporting veterans in healthcare.
Understanding our patients and staff veterans’ status enables us to signpost the community towards support to recognise their service and address their bespoke needs.
