My wife and I are nominating Brittany for the DAISY Award. She is such a sweet nurse! Even when she isn’t my nurse, she always stops in to visit and say, “Hi.” We love her smile, laugh, compassion and professionalism.
Brittany is an Iowa State fan, while my wife and I are Iowa Hawkeye fans. We talked Brittany into putting on an Iowa Hawkeye shirt and took her picture (even though her lower lip was sticking out). And, since most of the staff on the floor are Cubs fans, and my wife and I are Cardinals fans, Brittany bought us a Cardinals flag to put in the window of my room.
If we would have had a daughter of our own, we’d have wanted her to be just like Brittany. We are recognizing her because she goes the extra mile, she adds sunshine to an otherwise less-than-sunny day and feel blessed by her presence.
