🏆 Congratulations to Chloe Forker, MSN, RN, CEN, FCCS — recipient of the 2025 PONL DAISY Nurse Leader of the Year Award! 💚✨
This award honors exceptional nurse leaders who inspire excellence, compassion, and innovation — and Chloe truly embodies that spirit.
As a Clinical Practice Lead (CPL) on HUP’s Advanced Medicine Team, Chloe is a clinical expert, mentor, and go-to resource for her colleagues. Since stepping into the role, she’s enhanced onboarding for a multigenerational workforce, fostered nurse engagement, and strengthened leadership development across her team. 🌱
Before becoming a CPL, Chloe made her mark as an Emergency Department nurse, leading the ED Triage and Resuscitation/Critical Care Committees and advancing care during the height of the pandemic. Her passion for improving outcomes for patients with opioid use disorder inspired her to champion harm reduction, trauma-informed care, and stigma-free education.
Chloe has been instrumental in developing Xylazine wound care order sets, advocating for limb-sparing treatments, and designing harm reduction discharge kits with Narcan, education materials, and local resources — ensuring patients leave with safety and dignity. 💊❤️
Her compassion shines through every day. From coordinating complex discharges to uplifting her peers, Chloe creates a culture of teamwork, empathy, and healing. One patient shared:
“The staff really lifted my spirits and helped me recover the humanity and dignity I lost during a time of struggle. While I was here, I never felt alone.” 💬
Chloe’s leadership, kindness, and dedication make her a true example of nursing excellence. 💚
Join us in celebrating Chloe Forker for this well-deserved honor! 🎉
