Congrats to Aya RN Leah who won the DAISY Award

Aya travel nurse, Leah, received a DAISY award on her current assignment in Missouri! Read her nomination
story below.

“Leah was understanding of the vast array of heavy and complicated issues in my life, even outside of my reason for being here [at the hospital]. She was able to give me hope, something I haven’t been able to have in years. She was comforting, positive and knowledgeable even though she was exhausted. She made me feel like all was going to be okay. I feel like we’re kindred spirits. I know I am not the only person she affects in a positive way even outside her job duties. I am blessed to have crossed paths with her.”

We’re so proud to have an amazing nurse like Leah on our team.
Congrats, Leah! ...

Director lets RN Zach know that the little things matter

Aya travel RN, Zach, went above and beyond for one of his patients and the patient was so grateful.

His director wrote, “Zach made what could have been a stressful time a great patient experience and we are fortunate to have him on our team. I rounded on a patient on the telemetry floor who he looked after on Tuesday night. He was highly complimentary of the great care Zach provided and his attention to little things that make a difference.” ...

Aya traveler Narjess nominated for a DAISY Award

A patient recently nominated Aya traveler, Narjess, for making her feel at ease when she was alone and for providing comfort in a stressful situation.

See the full nomination below:

“I had to come in for my induction without my husband as we are military, have a toddler and all of our friends went “home” for Christmas. I had some medical complications making labor and delivery a bit nerve wracking and without my husband, it was a lot to manage on my own… until Narjess came in to introduce herself as my nurse. She immediately made me feel at ease. She was compassionate, confident and seemingly more highly trained than others. As a chronically ill patient, I see a plethora of specialists and their medical support teams and Narjess now stands as the absolute best nurse I have ever had the pleasure of being attended to and cared for by. She went above and beyond for me that evening AND came to check on me afterwards. I realize that she is a contracted travel nurse, but this should certainly not take away from the fact that she deserves recognition for her outstanding nursing.”

And the DAISY Award goes to … Bobbi, Aya travel nurse extraordinaire

We’re so excited to announce that Bobbi won the DAISY Award she was nominated for earlier this year. See information on her nomination below. Congrats, Bobbi! We’re so proud of you.

The patient who nominated Bobbi said:

“Bobbi is a great nurse, she makes sure you are good all day! She is very caring and makes sure you have all your needs met immediately. Give her a raise, she definitely deserves it!”

Way to go Bobbi. You make us proud!

Patient nominates Aya traveler Eva for the DAISY Award

This week, a patient was so happy with her nurse’s care that she nominated her for the DAISY award. Read her sweet nomination note below.

Dear Eva,

Words will fail to do proper justice to explain how amazing you are! You are an angel. I hope you know what a huge difference you made in my visit and my life. Your smile and kind words made a difference. I was so scared [about] everything…and then on top of that being told I am diabetic.

Your kind words of empowerment and encouragement mean everything. You went out of your way to provide empathy and assurance. I knew nothing about diabetes and you went above and beyond to print resources to help me understand my new condition. You check in on me often and always have a smile no matter how tired or rough your shift has been.

You deserve more than an award for everything you do. I am so grateful that I got to meet you and have you as my nurse. You have a heart of gold. I can’t thank you enough. You are part of the reason that my story is going to be happy and successful.
