February 2023 Honoree
Kaylyn Wilson 2, LPN
Wilson was nominated by a provider for her 'attentiveness, diligence, and follow-through' which potentially saved a patient's life.
According to the nomination, Wilson's patient had a routine x-ray. Wilson noticed there was a delay in the expected results and she escalated the matter to her manager to find out the status. The results revealed a concerning finding which required the patient to receive swift intervention and emergency surgery.
"By her attentiveness to the care of her patient, as well as her diligence and follow through, she helped promptly get her patient the care that was emergently needed," said the provider. "The patient was at very high risk of severe complications and even death without that surgical intervention."
As a high-reliability organization, SGMC is focused on achieving zero harm and makes patient safety its top priority. Wilson displayed the level of teamwork and perseverance necessary to advocate for a patient and their safety while in the hospital.
Note: This is Kaylyn's 2nd DAISY Award!
