Her commitment brought a sense of calm and trust that transformed the family's experience and ensured the patient continued to receive high-quality, uninterrupted care.
I am honored to nominate Stephani for the DAISY Award because she demonstrates exceptional dedication not only to our patients but also to our nursing staff every single day. As a nursing educator, she goes far beyond the expectations of her role—rounding consistently on staff, supporting bedside nurses, reinforcing best practices, and ensuring that both patients and team members feel heard, valued, and supported.

Recently, we admitted a patient whose care needs were complex and whose family dynamic was extremely challenging. The family required extensive communication, reassurance, repeated explanations, and a consistent point of contact to feel confident in the plan of care. Without being assigned to the case, Stephani stepped in each day to help manage their concerns. She patiently answered every question, clarified care processes, de-escalated frustrations, and served as a stable bridge between the clinical team and the family. Her commitment brought a sense of calm and trust that transformed the family's experience and ensured the patient continued to receive high-quality, uninterrupted care.

Stephani’s presence has had a profound impact on both staff and patient satisfaction. Nurses rely on her guidance and her steady, compassionate approach. Patients and families feel safer and more informed because she takes the time to ensure they truly understand their care. She is the definition of a servant leader—supportive, approachable, and deeply invested in elevating the entire nursing team.

Stephani embodies everything the DAISY Award represents: compassion, excellence, advocacy, and an unwavering dedication to the people we serve. For these reasons, and for the countless everyday moments where she quietly changes outcomes for the better, she is truly deserving of this honor.
