Do you know a real hero health worker?
If so, here’s a chance to get them the recognition they deserve.
Today the Yorkshire Evening Post launches the Best of Health awards.
These will honour people working in the health field in Leeds and Wakefield who go above and beyond the call of duty in looking after others.
We are looking for the superstars who deserve to be publicly recognised for the work that they do.
The Best of Health awards, sponsored by Sovereign Health Care, gives readers the chance to do just that. We are looking for nominations in 10 categories, including for top doctors, nurses and midwives.
We will also be recognising amazing opticians, fabulous dentists and fantastic physical therapists – physiotherapists, chiropractors and osteopaths.
As well as that, we are looking for carers, unsung heroes and teams of health workers.
Nominations in all categories are invited now.

After the closing date of October 4, the judging panel will draw up a shortlist for each category.
All the shortlisted nominees will be invited to a glitzy awards lunch on October 29, when the winners will be announced. One of the lucky category winners, who has demonstrated exemplary care, will also be given the Overall Judge’s Award.
Brian Nuttney, deputy editor of the Yorkshire Evening Post, said: “We are delighted to give hardworking health staff the praise they deserve through the Best of Health Awards.
“We hope all our readers will send in their nominations now to help us honour some real superstars.”
Russ Piper, chief executive of health cash plan provider Sovereign Health Care said: “Sovereign Health Care, is proud to support the Best of Health Awards 2012.
