The DAISY Award for
Extraordinary Nurses recognizes
the super-human work nurses do every day. It was
established in 2000 by the DAISY Foundation. Nurses are
nominated for the award by patients and family members.
Here is what they had to say about Cristy Costales, RN, 6North:
*Cristy always comes in the room
with a positive attitude and makes the
patient laugh,* one family member
said. *She cares about the patient*s
well-being.*
*She always extends a helping
hand when I*m around, even when
a patient is not assigned to her,* said
Ramsay Nucho, MD.
*Cristy exhibits and demonstrates
caring not only to her patients, but to
her co-workers,* said 6North Manager
Hazel Ada, RN.
