Nominate a Colleague for a CommonSpirit Vision Award!

Nominations are now open for the 2026 CommonSpirit Health Clinical Excellence Vision Awards. The Vision Awards are intended to recognize and celebrate clinical excellence at CHI St. Vincent and across CommonSpirit Health. 

Nomination categories include Compassion, Innovation and Inspiration. Two award categories, Patient Excellence and Quality, will be given based on performance metrics from the past fiscal year.
