She works efficiently, compassionately, and from her heart.
If there is one thing you must know about Anne Wagner, it is that she lives a life of service. She sits behind a desk in front of a computer, in a room where few will ever know how important she is to the organization unless there is a way to spotlight her worth, such as through this Daisy nomination. Every day she makes sure that patients under her service get to their designated discharge location safely and timely. Even though she doesn't see patients, she knows each and every patient's story as if they were her family member through extensive chart review. She takes the time to ensure each referral she makes is considered for their individual situation, which adds value to the service she provides. The time she spends to fully know their story is time invested to make sure each patient receives the exemplary service they deserve. The patients are not just a number or referral to her. She works efficiently, compassionately, and from her heart. She advocates for patients and stands up for their interests as her morality requires. If she can do all of that sitting down, imagine what she can do and whom she can lead when she stands up!
