Due to its success at various Yale New Haven Health delivery networks, the Patient Experience Award for Caring and Excellence (PEACE) has been expanded systemwide, with a more streamlined nominating process.
The award highlights outstanding individuals and teams that go above and beyond for patients and their families. It encourages peer-to-peer recognition and aligns recognition with YNHHS’ core values and commitment to excellence in patient-centered care.
All employees can now nominate a colleague via the employee intranet (this nomination system replaces the previous nomination email box). Here’s how:
- Visit the YNHHS employee intranet and choose Departments & Communities from the dropdown menu.
- Choose Recognition Connection, then Send a Rave, which will take you to Infor.
- In Infor, click How to Submit a Rave/Nomination for further instructions.
Nominations are reviewed and awardees chosen by each delivery network’s (DN’s) PEACE Award Committee (a DN-specific committee will review nominations from ambulatory locations). Multiple winners will be chosen across several DNs throughout the year.
PEACE recognition is part of YNHHS’ ongoing commitment to foster a culture of appreciation and celebrate employees who go above and beyond to provide an exceptional experience to patients and their families. Watch for information about awardees in future issues of Perspectives.
