The colleague wrote, “I have practiced nursing for over a decade, and everywhere I have worked, there are always people who stand out at their job. Lee is one of those employees. He is exemplary. He anticipates the needs of the nursing staff. He regularly checks in on his patients and ensures they are cared for, cleaned, and have what they need. Granted, this is a part of the job description, but any discrepancy from ideal patient happiness he addresses without spectacle, and most promptly.

Becca receives a DAISY Award
Becca was awarded the DAISY Award after demonstrating top-notch clinical care and leadership skills during a patient’s emergency room visit.
The patient wrote, “I arrived at the emergency room with my heart pounding. Becca immediately recognized the signs of heart failure and quickly took me to a room. She was back in about 10 seconds, and within 20 seconds there were 12 people in the room with her. She knew her job well and did not have to think — she just did. I was impressed with her demeanor and efficiency and how well she treated and spoke to her coworkers. Becca would be my first choice in selecting someone to lead the world. The whole team should be commended, but it takes someone to lead and coordinate the team to have that kind of result. Please pass along my appreciation for an outstanding nurse. I am alive today because of her skills.”
Congratulations, Becca! The Aya team appreciates everything you do. You deserve that nomination!
