I would like to nominate Ms. Rose for the DAISY Award. I was a patient earlier this week and was discharged after a week of hospitalization. I could never thank her enough for being so pleasant and attentive. In one of the days that I was in the hospital, I was in severe pain and I know I was becoming very irritable because of the discomfort I was having. I know I said a few harsh words to the nursing staff, and I really apologize for this. I was not being myself during those times when I was really sick. Rose was very patient with me and did not mind how I was behaving because I guess she understood what was happening, and she knew exactly how to manage me. She was very calm and reassuring. She is also very knowledgeable and skillful. I wouldn’t have survived my hospitalization if not for Rose. She is indeed an asset to her unit.

Thank you for this DAISY Award for the opportunity to thank excellent nurses like Rose.
