Lee Health is honored to be the first healthcare system in Florida to be recognized with the Governor’s Sterling Award, granted by the Sterling Council.

The Florida Sterling Award is a prestigious recognition bestowed upon organizations in Florida that demonstrate exemplary performance in several key areas including leadership, strategic planning, customer focus, measurement, analysis, knowledge management, workforce focus, operations focus, and results.

To receive the Florida Sterling Award, organizations must complete an application detailing performance, initiatives, and results, along with supporting documentation. A team of performance excellence experts then reviews the application and conducts further evaluation, which includes site visits, interviews with leadership and employees, and examination of documentation and evidence provided by the organization.
