🏥 Why Recognition Improves Employee Retention in Healthcare

In healthcare, we talk a lot about staffing, burnout and pipeline, but not enough about something deceptively simple: recognition. For clinical and non-clinical teams alike, feeling seen is strongly linked to whether they stay, engage, and go the extra mile.

Here’s why structured recognition has such a measurable impact on retention:

1️⃣ Reinforces purpose in high-pressure roles
Healthcare professionals choose demanding careers with a strong sense of purpose. Regular, credible recognition connects day-to-day tasks back to that purpose, reducing emotional exhaustion and cynicism.

2️⃣ Builds psychological safety and belonging
When teams see good practice consistently highlighted, it signals that their contribution is valued, not just their capacity. That sense of belonging is a key predictor of whether people choose to stay during periods of change or pressure.

3️⃣ Signals career development, not just appreciation
Recognition tied to specific behaviours, skills, outcomes or innovations helps employees understand:
- What “good” looks like in your organisation
- Which capabilities are valued and rewarded
- This clarity supports progression and reduces the appeal of moving elsewhere for “better opportunities”.

4️⃣ Strengthens your employer brand in a competitive market
In a sector facing global workforce shortages, organisations that are known for celebrating their people, internally and externally, are more attractive to candidates and more likely to keep top performers.

🙌 Where formal awards add value
Alongside internal recognition programmes, external awards provide:
- Independent validation of team and organisational achievements
- Powerful stories to share with current and prospective employees
- Credible proof points when engaging partners, commissioners and stakeholders

At GHP News, we support healthcare & pharmaceutical industries to showcase their work through our independent awards programmes, helping you recognise teams, strengthen retention and build reputation.

🌙 Why Fever Spikes at Night and What Clinicians Want Patients to Know

Many patients report the same worrying pattern: “They’re fine during the day… but by evening, the temperature shoots up.”

In our latest GHP News feature, we explore 5 common reasons fevers often worsens at night, and how healthcare professionals can help families understand and manage it more safely.

We look at:
🧬 Body clock & immune response: how circadian rhythms and inflammatory mediators can make fevers more noticeable after dark

🌡️ Perception vs. progression: why symptoms feel worse at night, even when infection is following a typical course

💊 Medication timing: when dosing schedules, missed doses or short-acting antipyretics can contribute to overnight spikes

🏠 Environment & hydration: the role of warm rooms, heavy bedding and fluid intake in how high fevers climb

🚨 Red-flag signs: when a night-time fever should trigger urgent assessment rather than “wait and see”

The article also covers practical guidance on monitoring, comfort measures and clear safety-netting messages, helping clinicians have more structured, reassuring conversations with patients and caregivers.

Healthcare doesn’t slow down for the holidays, but everyone has their go-to way to kick off a new year.

So tell us… what’s fuelling your start to 2026?

Let’s see where healthcare leaders are getting their New Year energy from…

29/12/2025

Healthcare leaders are already planning beyond 2025, but are your 2026 resolutions truly future-ready? 🧭

Here are six priorities we see boards and senior teams needing to focus on next year:

1. Hard-wiring workforce wellbeing
Move from ad-hoc wellbeing initiatives to measurable strategies that address staffing levels, burnout, leadership culture and psychological safety, not just perks.

2. Governing AI, not just piloting it 🤖
Establish clear frameworks for data quality, bias monitoring, clinical validation and accountability so AI supports clinicians and patients without eroding trust.

3. Closing the equity gap 🌍
Bake health equity into strategy: segment outcomes data, co-design services with underserved communities and link executive KPIs to reducing disparities.

4. Interoperability as a non-negotiable 🔗
Prioritise secure data sharing across care settings so clinicians can make decisions with a complete view of the patient, not a patchwork of siloed systems.

5. From volume to value 📊
Shift incentives towards prevention, outcomes and patient-reported experience, supported by robust real-world evidence and transparent metrics.

6. Embedding sustainability in clinical reality 🌱
Align net-zero ambitions with day-to-day practice: greener supply chains, smarter facilities and procurement that recognises environmental as well as clinical value.

For 2026, the most effective “resolutions” will be operational, measurable and clinically credible, not just statements on a slide deck.

💬 Which of these is highest on your agenda for 2026, or what would you add to the list?
