Jeanne stands out as a nurse from our unit who demonstrates the qualities outlined in the criteria for DAISY award. I have seen her on numerous occasions advocate for patients, especially the indigent. She stayed one time on a holiday to make sure a difficult, yet indigent patient got his script for pain meds. I think she has even housed indigent folks (patients) in the past years. She always has her reference tools with her to check on the latest info, look up a med or find patient education resources. She teaches TNCC and ACLS. I see her coordinate care for patients, even when it means having uncomfortable conversations with other team members i.e. surgeons. The thing I love the most about Jeanne: she bounces around the unit offering help to others - nurses, PCTs, patients and rarely complains about difficult tasks, not to mention she has given her best no matter what department she's in. Go Jeanne!
