NSW Health Pathology Awards 2021 caring, connecting and pioneering - for all of us Sponsorship Proposal
An invitation from the Chief Executive
It gives me great pleasure to formally offer you the opportunity to partner with us for our NSW Health Pathology Awards 2021:
Caring, Connecting and Pioneering - for all of us
NSW Health Pathology is a trusted partner delivering highly specialised public pathology and forensic services for the people of NSW.
Our staff across NSW are committed to our purpose of creating better health and justice systems. We put people at the heart of all we
do, treating every person, sample and result with utmost care. We find the answers that matter at all stages of life.
Most recently, our 5,000 staff have risen to the occasion and played a critical role in managing the COVID-19 pandemic in NSW.
Virologists, microbiologists, scientists, couriers, data analysts, information technology engineers and all types of support staff – to
acknowledge just a few – have all played a vital role.
TEAM: Lismore Core Laboratory

majority of negative results to patients within 24 hours, NSW Health Pathology has proved itself essential to protecting the health and

safety of the people of NSW. Learn more about our COVID-19 response on page eight.
I can think of no better time than right now to genuinely recognise our dedicated staff and reward our people. Our staff deserve praise
and recognition for going above and beyond, including those who have maintained critical public pathology and forensic investigations
during the COVID-19 pandemic.
These awards give us the opportunity to showcase the extraordinary achievements, collaborations and innovations of our people and
our services. It’s also been aligned with our caring, connecting and pioneering spirit.
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues in 2021, we don’t know if we can hold a COVID-19 safe event in person, or if it will be virtual.
Regardless, we’ll still be celebrating our people and that’s why programs like this are so important to us.
We are offering a variety of sponsorship opportunities for organisations to partner with us to strengthen and build relationships across
our statewide network.
Please take the opportunity to review our sponsorship proposal and contact Kristy Waddell, Strategic Communications, if you have any
questions – Kristy.Waddell@health.nsw.gov.au or 0434 609 502.
I hope you will partner with us on our 2021 NSW Health Pathology Awards: Caring, Connecting and Pioneering - for all of us.

Our award categories
Our awards program forms part of NSW Health Pathology’s Diversity and Inclusion Strategy.
It is an important formal platform to recognise our staff who go above and beyond in their service to NSW Health Pathology and the
communities we serve.
It also reinforces our strong commitment to our RITE values and behaviours – Respect, Integrity, Teamwork and Excellence.
This year we have created a new team category to reflect our organisational priority and passion among staff for environmental
sustainability.
In creating this new award, we recognise the continued and devasting effect of climate change, pollution and unsustainable resource
use on the health of our planet, and the health of people and communities across our state.

Celebrating our people
Last year we held our inaugural gala awards in the very early days of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In hindsight we were very fortunate to be able to celebrate together in this way.
In the light of the COVID-19 pandemic, we hope that a COVID-19 safe event will be possible. However, we will be guided by the public
health advice, and may need to adapt and change the delivery of the 2021 awards program (such as a holding virtual event with local
STAFF MEMBER: Professor Dominic Dwyer ‘watch parties’).
POSITION: Director, Public Health Pathology
and Senior Medical Virologist Finalists and winners will still be announced and celebrations will take a different shape, based on the public health orders at the time.
STORY: Our leading COVID-19 expert. Regardless, we will remain flexible and adaptable and still plan to come together in some way, to celebrate our achievements.

Rising to the challenge Our values
NSW Health Pathology rises to the challenge during testing times We always walk our talk by committing to our RITE values and behaviours.
We’d barely made it through the bushfires where our staff distinguished themselves with incredible professional and personal resilience,
and then we were faced with a global pandemic.
With little to no reprieve, our 5,000-strong NSW Health Pathology team again rose to the occasion, showing the extraordinary

We quickly established COVID-19 specialist diagnostic testing at dedicated laboratories, and evaluated and deployed new rapid testing
platforms throughout regional and rural NSW. Our testing rate was quickly among the highest in the world per capita.
Our inspiring scientists and researchers grew the live virus from infected patients’ samples in February 2020 and developed a game-

We all deserve it We are trusted
With around 99 per cent of people tested found to be COVID-19-negative, our ICT team pioneered a solution to automatically deliver partners
negative results direct to patients via SMS. Most results have been delivered within 24 to 48 hours of lab testing to more than 1.8 million
people registering. By January 2021, NSWHP hit a new milestone of 2,045,231 tests – half of all those performed in NSW in the past

year.
We are also a key partner in NSW Health’s new COVID-19 saliva surveillance program for hotel quarantine facility workers.
As numbers of cases of COVID-19 continue to rise across the world and more people return to Australia from overseas, we are seeing
increased numbers of cases in quarantine facilities. This group poses the greatest risk of infection and transmission, which is why this
surveillance test is so important.

This phenomenal response to COVID-19 has been achieved while also maintaining a full suite of public pathology and forensic services
