Nominations are judged by a selection committee composed of leaders within the hospice industry. The selection committee is looking for examples and specific details that demonstrate how nominees have exceeded expectations and, by their actions, made those around them better. Nominees must be an FHPCA member in good standing at the time of nomination and at the time of the award presentation.
New for 2013, the Awards of Excellence will also include a cash prize! Thanks to the generous support of awards sponsors, each of the 2013 award winners will receive a cash prize in addition to a recognition plaque. Prize amounts vary by award. Submissions must be received no later than Friday, March 15, 2013.
Note: All awards are made at the discretion of the FHPCA Awards Selection Committee, which may choose to grant no award or multiple awards in a category. Nominations which do not adhere to the nomination guidelines and submission procedures will be rejected. Submission materials will not be returned.
