Dear Jemary,

The specific event of compassionate nursing care as described by your patient:

"I want to nominate Jem Salonga, a Registered Nurse at Sacramento Medical Center ICU, for the DAISY Award for his remarkable contributions during our Magnet Journey at Sacramento Medical Center. Working night shifts is challenging, demanding true team players to make a difference. Jem embodies this spirit through his exceptional leadership.

Motivator:
Jem is a powerful force of empowerment, inspiring all nurses to pursue board certification as we strive for Magnet recognition. His passionate advocacy for accreditation is not just inspiring but empowering, making us believe in our own potential. His unwavering belief in our abilities, often saying, “You can do this, I believe in you,” has spurred many of us to pursue certifications like CCRN and SCRN. In a world where individual success often overshadows teamwork, Jem’s commitment to collective achievement is a source of empowerment, inspiring personal growth and achievement for us all.

Leadership:
Jem’s leadership is not just about guiding the education team, but also about recognizing and celebrating their significant accomplishments. His consistent acknowledgement of the team’s efforts creates a supportive atmosphere where everyone feels appreciated and valued. Jem’s dedication to team recognition fosters a sense of belonging and motivation, creating a workplace where everyone thrives.

Quality Care for ICU Patient:
Jem’s unwavering commitment to elevating the standard and quality of care for our patients on the unit is profound priority. This dedication is not only enhancing HCAHPS scores and boosting patient satisfaction but also reducing hospital readmission rates and preventing hospital-acquired infections. Jem’s emphasis on patient education empowers individuals to understand their medications, including potential side effects and their intended purposes, thereby fostering better medication compliance. His commitment to patient care and education reinforces the high standards upheld by the Sacramento Medical Center ICU. Oyinlola Talabi”
