Hospital Heroes Award Guidelines

Awards Guidelines

A nomination may be submitted by anyone including a person not affiliated with a Georgia hospital. Nominees must be employed or have medical privileges at a hospital that is a member of the Georgia Hospital Association. A nominee can be a person who works at a patient's bedside - such as a physician or nurse - or may be someone who does not directly interact with patients but who helps enhance the overall patient experience, such as a professional who works in an administrative capacity or other areas such as dietary, environmental services or physical plant operations.

To submit a nomination, a nomination form must be completed and accompanied by a narrative of no more than 750 words explaining why the nominee deserves this award. Describe the actions or programs initiated by the nominee and the measurable results. A testimonial letter may accompany the nomination.

Completed applications can be returned to heroes@gha.org or download a nomination form and mail it to:
