Kristina is nominated for a DAISY Award!

RN, Kristina, was nominated for a DAISY Award by a charge nurse at her facility for her perseverance and compassion while handling a very delicate situation.

The charge nurse wrote, “Kristina shows compassion, critical thinking and what it means to be a nurse. Kristina had a patient that was close to end-of-life care but the facility had trouble getting the family to make a decision. Kristina acted quickly and with grace when this patient went unresponsive. Unfortunately, this patient passed away, but I would like to nominate Kristina for this award for her response to the patient’s passing and also for aiding the family. It took multiple calls to get the family on the phone to inform them, and I had never heard a nurse talk so patiently and so empathetic when discussing a patient passing with a family. Kristina demonstrates what it is to be a nurse and never falls short when things get hard. Kristina is very deserving of this award.”

Congratulations, Kristina, this nomination is well deserved!
