On International Women’s Day, March 8, Chief Executive Neil Guckian paid tribute to the ‘incredible efforts’ of females within the Western Trust.
“Females account for a very significant percentage of our workforce, at all levels, and play such a huge part in helping us deliver our services, whether it’s on the front line or behind the scenes.
“We are very appreciative of their efforts, today and every day, for the crucial role they have in helping make the Western Trust the wonderful organisation it is,” he said.
Here is a selection of photographs shared by the WHSCT of some of the women health care workers who keep the local service going.
