Mrs. Parvathi Bekkam is a nurse in the Observation Unit at WOMC. She was nominated for the DAISY Award by her co-workers and recognized by her patients as an employee who displays professional sympathy, compassion, proficiency competency, considerate, cooperative, and friendliness. She is an employee who places our R.I.S.E.S. values in front of every interaction that she has with her patients. She always advocates for the patients in the unit and works cooperatively by mobilizing resources to facilitate an environment that fosters care and compassion to meet the goals of patient care and their families. On multiple occasions, I observed her ease the patient’s pain and offer hope in ways that were meaningful to our patients or their loved ones, sometimes offering to pray with the patients and their loved ones for a prompt recovery, making a special connection with the patient and /or his/her family. She takes her time to educate and include the patient and family during the care process. She consistently exhibits extraordinary compassion and kindness to her team members, patients, and their families every day as an essential part of the healing process. Her calm, focused, and caring communication skills help establish the connection and trust with her patients, especially in challenging situations. Thank you, Parvathi, for the incredible care and commitment you show to your patients. It is an honor to nominate you for this award. Congratulations!
