Dina was nominated for a DAISY Award for multiple reasons. She demonstrated compassion, caring, and teamwork across departments. As an ED Charge RN, she was rounding on patients in the ICU. The ICU was very busy with COVID+ patients. Dina noticed that a particular patient needed a bath and the patient's room needed to be cleaned. Dina checked that other ED nurses could cover for her, so went to the ICU, bathed the patient, washed her hair, and cleaned the patient's room. The patient and the ICU nurses were so happy to have the help. This is just the kind of person that she is. She is constantly checking on her co-workers to make sure everyone has everything they need, not only to do their jobs but also to increase staff morale. She is very pleasant to work with. Physicians, co-workers, and her patients compliment her frequently. She is a dedicated nurse and dedicated to the hospital. We are fortunate to have her on our team.
