Daisy Award Nominee

The daisy award is a program that recognizes the extraordinary and compassionate care of nurses. I patient can nominate a nurse they feel went above and beyond for them during their care. This is especially challenging within the emergency department due to our limited time spent with each of our patients. However in March of 2024 I was nominated for a daisy by a patient of mine. I wear this pin with great honor.
