Joan Martellotto received the nomination from a patient who had type I Diabetes Mellitus coupled with hypoglycemia unawareness, which left the patient in a vulnerable state. Joan was described as having a presence that projects peace and tranquility when she enters a room, and she made a life-changing medical procedure less frightening. Joan is the very essence of what the DAISY Award stands for in her profession.

Thank you, Joan, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
