Neelam gave me faith in humanity.
Neelam, a dedicated nurse with UW Health for 21 years, has received over 500 DAISY nominations since 2014. Her care and compassion are not just admirable; they are a testament to her professional excellence. She has the unique ability to envelop her patients in a remarkable level of comfort and support, impacting their lives.

Neelam received the following nomination from a patient who had this to say about the remarkable care she provided:

Neelam is the most passionate person I have ever met in this world. She made the choice to sit and just talk with me for about 30 minutes each night I have stayed here. She honestly opened my heart and truly made me believe in self-love. Hearing her stories and jokes have made me stronger. The compassion and full love she has for all her patients is incredible. She really did plant a little seed in my heart so I can grow. The way she talks and looks at you really shows how caring and trusted she is. She never backs down and that inspired me so much to chase my goals no matter how long it takes. Neelam gave me faith in humanity. I will always remember her in my heart and soul. She deserves the best. Thank you.

This is Neelam's 3rd DAISY Award!
