Her presence provides comfort, reassurance, and hope during difficult times.
I am honored to nominate Sheri Steele for the DAISY Award because she exemplifies what it truly means to be a compassionate, dedicated, and exceptional nurse. Every single day, Sheri comes to work with her whole heart focused on her patients. She goes above and beyond to ensure their needs are met by carefully managing their target weights, chair times, fluid balance, blood pressure, lab values, and any other concerns that may affect their health and well-being.

Sheri’s commitment does not stop within the walls of our dialysis clinic. When our patients are hospitalized, she takes the time to check on them daily, making sure they are supported and informed, and working diligently to help them return safely to dialysis. Her presence provides comfort, reassurance, and hope during difficult times.

What truly sets Sheri apart is her unwavering compassion and genuine care for every patient she serves. She treats each person with dignity, respect, and kindness, always advocating for what is best for them. Sheri consistently gives her all, day in and day out, and her dedication makes a lasting impact on the lives of our patients and their families.

For her extraordinary commitment, selflessness, and heartfelt service, Sheri Steele is more than deserving of the DAISY Award.
