I am a 71-year-old retired nurse of 40 years, and I am nominating Chris Wiley for the DAISY Award. I have worked with and observed many nurses in my career, and I know a good nurse when I see them. Chris is an excellent nurse and should be rewarded for the wonderful care that he provides his patients. I was his patient for two nights. I was severely dehydrated, acute abdominal pain, had not eaten solids for a month due to the pain and cold. Chris gave me warm blankets and warm broth before he even started the admission. He did the normal things, reviewed meds, and explained the plan of care, but Chris went above and beyond. He helped clean me up after I was incontinent of stool, brought me bath supplies, and changed my bed linens instead of calling the tech. He did thorough assessments at the cardiac cath site, all by maintaining my modesty. He was kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and thorough, with a great sense of humor that I appreciated. He encouraged me to eat small bites of solid food, which helped me regain my appetite. He explained every procedure and every medication before giving them to me. In my opinion, Chris is a wonderful asset to your hospital and a true DAISY Nurse.
