The second nomination form read “I would like to nominate Nurse Margaret Shephard of the Nuclear Medicine and Cardiology Department for the Daisy Award. Margaret has been a dedicated employee with this organization for over 38 years and exemplifies what nursing is all about. Her constant attention to detail while coordinating the critical care required during the three different types of stress testing is to be commended. She is in touch with each patients care and any concerns they may have about their test. Her first priority is patient comfort.
