Aya RN, Lilla, gets a DAISY Award nomination!

Lilla was nominated for a DAISY Award by a patient who was so impressed by her care, she wished she could clone her!

The patient wrote, In our busy lives, the easiest thing to do is say, ‘Thanks’..To slow down, have real dialogue and write words of gratitude, is a truly authentic thank you! Lilla was full of energy her entire shift. She always did what she said she was going to do and unlike previous experiences, I didn’t need a GPS to track and find her when I needed her. Her actions show she cares. She’s Hungarian and was able to communicate with an older patient who spoke the language. I told her she’ll never understand how cared for that patient must have felt during her stay. She’s well-rounded and tough, so this profession truly fits her perfectly! I hope nothing but the best for you dear. Whatever you want out of life, I know you’ll be able to obtain it. The world is yours! Keep leading with your heart and humor – WE NEED MORE OF YOU. Blessings, joy and love!”

Lilla, the care you show your patients is heartwarming. We’re so proud to have you on our team!

Aya nurse, Jennifer, gets nominated for a DAISY Award!

RN, Jennifer’s, superb care allowed for the wife of a patient to feel comfortable leaving to handle things at home, knowing her husband was in Jennifer’s safe hands.

The wife wrote, “My husband was admitted to the hospital for a blocked colon. A few days later, our dog was put to sleep and my husband was so upset and everyone was so nice and kept checking on him. Jennifer went above and beyond to check on him and make sure he was taken care of. I called in and Jennifer listened to me and told me she was keeping a close eye on him. I can’t tell you, as a family member, how nice it is to take that burden off while dealing with other matters. Five stars for Jennifer!”

Jennifer, the attentive care you provide goes a long way with your patients and their families. Congratulations on your nomination!

Aya RN, William was recognized by two managers at his facility for his willingness to assist wherever he could and for providing true support to his team.

One manager wrote, “We wanted to pass this along so that William could be recognized. He was so incredibly helpful yesterday when he floated to us as a helping hands nurse. He passed meds, helped set up a cooling blanket, he stocked, answered call lights, responded to alarms. I’m not sure he ever sat down. We couldn’t have made it through the day without him.”

The other manager said, “William was a helping hand all shift and was amazing. Call lights were being answered immediately. There wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do.”

This absolutely amazing to hear; keep up the good work William!

RN, Caitlin, wins a DAISY Award!

Aya traveler, Cat, received a DAISY Award for demonstrating what it means to be a nurse and leaving a positive impact on her patient.

The patient wrote, “Cat, as a person and as a professional, embraces all of the exemplary characteristics set forth for the DAISY Award. She’s skilled, empathetic, patient, kind, thoughtful and communicates on a level that transfers and creates hope for the distraught patient. When I entered the hospital, I was scared, felt helpless and as if my life was in a downward spiral. Cat’s constant attentiveness, first to my illness, and then practical measures needed to help me recover and to the broader scope of mind and body healing, opened up the opportunity for complete healing and allowed me to leave the hospital ready to tackle any new or continuing challenges. Her maturity, her intelligence, her willingness to open up her own vulnerabilities, all contributed to my success. Not only has Cat helped me, but by sharing with me, she has positioned me to be more sensitive to others and carry forward her beautiful talents. Thank you, Cat!”

Congratulations on this well-deserved award, Cat!

Aya RN, Telisca, makes a big impression on a patient’s family

A patient’s family called the leadership team at RN, Telisca’s, facility and complimented her for providing great care and ensuring the patient was comfortable during their stay.

Facility leadership relayed the message, sharing, “She had to bring her daughter to the ED last night and this was their first time coming to the facility. She said Telisca went above and beyond and she wanted to recognize her for the phenomenal service and care that she provided to her daughter. Telisca stepped in and said, ‘I got this,’ when it was time to do an EKG. Her daughter has a phobia of needles and Telisca took her time showing her how small the needle was and making jokes to make it a more comfortable experience. The patient’s mother said, ‘We were blown away when my daughter didn’t even cry. If I could, I would give her 100/10. She was so good to all of us.’”

In addition, the leadership team said, “What a wonderful compliment, Telisca! It sounds as though your efforts were appreciated so much by this family. Thank you for always providing great care to our patients, we are so happy to have you as part of our team!”

Telisca, we’re impressed by what an impact you made on this patient and their family. Keep up the amazing work!
