November 2015 Honoree
connie pugh 0, RN
This nomination was written by a mother giving birth (who is also a practicing surgeon):
It is not common that in the medical field with all its "busyness" that one easily sees the face of Christ as well as I saw it in the actions and attitude of my nurse, Connie Pugh. I have now had two children here at CHI St. Vincent Infirmary, and she has guided me through those initial nights with patience and true love of her role. Connie truly helped me to fall in love even more with my babies.
Furthermore, the night I first arrived, she also had a patient that many other people could not have kept. She recognized a woman in great need and attended to her intrinsic value and dignity. She taught me even more about love through her example of selfless care for another.
Note: This is Connie's second DAISY Award, the first was in 2012.
