The oncology department at Forth Valley Royal Hospital has been recognised for the high level of support and care they give to people affected by cancer. Staff have been awarded the prestigious Macmillan Quality Environmental Mark (MQEM) and former department manager Liz MacMillan says she wants to say a huge thank you to Evelyn, Jennifer and Karen for all their work in helping to achieve this.

The MQEM is a groundbreaking award that all public, voluntary and private health and social care providers would be proud to attain. The assessment process took place over five hours and was carried out by external assessors.

The award will be displayed in the reception area and will be reassessed every three years to make sure high standards are maintained.
