Our Awards

Ostomy Canada – Maple Leaf Award, NSWOC Award, Chair’s Award and Unsung Hero Award

Awards are given to individuals of Ostomy Canada for their incredible contributions towards the success of the organization – locally, regionally and nationally. Recognition and presentation of the awards serves as an inspiration to other members leading towards self-improvement and self-empowerment. It also increases participation and commitment of the Chapter/Support Group members and to the Society.

These awards will now be given on an annual basis. We strongly encourage you to review or download the awards manual and nomination forms. There are key dates and nomination information within.

MAPLE LEAF AWARD

MAPLE LEAF AWARD

The Maple Leaf Award is the most prestigious award presented by Ostomy Canada. It is given to an Ostomy Canada member or associate who has demonstrated outstanding volunteer service for the benefit of Ostomy Canada and its members.

NURSES SPECIALIZED IN WOUND, OSTOMY AND CONTINENCE RECOGNITION AWARD

NURSES SPECIALIZED IN WOUND, OSTOMY AND CONTINENCE RECOGNITION AWARD

The Nurses Specialized in Wound, Ostomy and Continence Recognition (NSWOC) Award is given to an NSWOC who has supported persons with an ostomy through involvement with his/her local Chapter/Peer Support Group activities and at national functions. The award also enables Ostomy Canada members to acknowledge their NSWOC for his/her support and services.

CHAIR’S AWARD

CHAIR’S AWARD

The Chair’s Award (renamed in 2022) can be bestowed on any member at any level of the organization or to an associate who the Chair of the Board deems to have demonstrated outstanding voluntary services on behalf of the organization.

UNSUNG HERO AWARD

UNSUNG HERO AWARD

The Unsung Hero Award is presented to individuals who work behind the scenes in any successful organization. They are also dedicated to Ostomy Canada but do not seek the limelight. In fact, they prefer to do their work and give their support in an unobtrusive manner. To be nominated for this award, an individual’s story needs to be published in the national newsletter, Ostomy Canada Connects. It is our goal to have at least one Unsung Hero recipient each quarter.

Names of Past Recipients

Beginning in 2023 we will post the names of past recipients of these Awards. A full historical listing will be made available upon request to awards@ostomycanada.ca
