MWL recently featured on BBC Radio Merseyside in a series of interviews with staff who work in our portering, catering and domestic teams at Whiston Hospital.
The special feature titled ‘Unsung Heroes’ involved Breakfast Presenter, Kevin Duala, chatting with recent Lifetime Achievement winner and Porter, Alan Sutton, along with manager Brian Kennedy, Catering Supervisor, Emma Crook and Domestic Assistant, Michael Pilkington.
Kevin covered their day to day roles, what their job means to them and the importance of their work in making sure the hospital runs smoothly.
Sylvia Sinclair, Deputy Contracts Manager, Medirest, who oversees the portering, catering and domestic teams said, “I’m incredibly proud of the work our teams carry out across the hospital. They always put the patients and staff at the heart of everything they do and their commitment to the Trust is unwavering.
“The roles that Alan, Brian, Emma and Michael do are non-clinical and often go unnoticed despite their crucial contributions. To be recognised and celebrated on national radio, highlighting their dedication and the significant impact they have at the Trust is fantastic.”
