We had a patient who came for an intentional medication dose requiring involuntary psychiatric admission. Chelsea demonstrated poise and compassion as she used effective de-escalation techniques to help the patient. Her persistence in care was admirable. I strongly recommend her for the DAISY Award as she exemplifies the standard that is this award is designed for.

Chelsey had a very difficult and agitated patient who was in our ER for psychiatric reasons. Chelsey went above and beyond to attempt de-escalation for this patient. Chelsey showed true compassion in a caring attitude that embodies a nurse who cares for their patients. Even through threats and aggressive behavior from the patient Chelsey never faltered and continued to provide exceptional care.

Thank you, Chelsey, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
