We are incredibly proud to announce our newest DAISY Foundation Award for Extraordinary Nurses recipient April Davis, RN.

April’s recent nomination from a patient's family proves exactly why she is so deserving of this honor. The family shared: "Not only did she take care of our grandmother, but she took care of us, as well. Always making sure we didn’t need anything. Although we said 'no' every time, she still did it, such as bringing us snack and drinks and answering our hundreds of questions. Every time we needed her she was there. We will never forget April and the comfort she brought or family."

April embodies the heart of nursing. She didn't just provide medical care; she provided a sanctuary of support. Please join us in the comments by congratulating April on this well-deserved recognition!

Please join us in celebrating Lauren Jeffers, RN, from our ER for being named a Gold Stroke Champion! 🏆

Lauren’s rapid response to a patient showing signs of stroke made all the difference. When it comes to stroke, every minute matters — nearly 2 million brain cells can be lost each minute treatment is delayed. Fast action can protect brain function, reduce long-term disability, and even save a life.

Thank you, Lauren, for your vigilance, compassion, and commitment to exceptional care!
