Brenda Suatengco, 7 South (MSICU). This month Brenda was recognized by a grateful parent whose child was acutely admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. The parent of this child enthusiastically praised Brenda’s outstanding care: “my son was very unstable and Brenda was in control of the situation every step of the way. Brenda always kept us informed of every decision that was being made. She also was careful to ensure my husband and I both knew what was happening. It is difficult to put into words, but I really do believe that Brenda saved my son's life. I have worked for many years, but I have a hard time thinking of anyone else who has the intelligence, compassion, and dedication to the care of children that Brenda showed us. It is with heartfelt gratitude that I nominate Brenda Suatengco for the Daisy Award.” Congratulations to Brenda!
