“She was heaven sent” says the family who nominated Annie Fernandez as a DAISY nurse. “Annie gave us hope when there was none.” Our patients at Saint Agnes not only need compassionate, professional care, but so do their families – whether it is an extra pillow, a cup of coffee, answering questions, calling for support. These extra special acts of kindness embody the spirit of the DAISY honoree … an extraordinary nurse like Annie.
“Annie watched over our father, and he responded to her care. Her personality and smile were not only comforting, but very much needed,” her nominators continued. “It gave us restful sleep at night, knowing Annie was on duty.”
