Introducing our 2022 People’s Choice Award nominees

In June, our Customer Reference Group invited Therapy Focus customers, their families and support networks to nominate therapists and therapy teams for our 2022 People’s Choice Award.

The annual award recognises exceptional service delivery and celebrates Therapy Focus employees who have demonstrated our guiding principles. Nominations closed 1 July and we would like to thank everyone who submitted a nomination and helped acknowledge the hard work and dedication of our team.

Our Customer Reference Group (CRG) will review all nominations and select three finalists. The person who submitted the winning nomination will be invited to present the award to the winner at the annual Staff Awards being held in October. The winner of the People’s Choice Award will receive a trophy and $2,000 cash.

Congratulations to our nominees!
