The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses

The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses is a nationally recognized program that celebrates the wonderful nurses we encounter during some of the most worrisome — or joyful — moments in our lives. Three Rivers Hospital wanted to bring a more meaningful voice to the feedback we hear from patients and their loved ones, so we’ve partnered with the DAISY Foundation to offer the annual DAISY Award.

The DAISY Foundation shares our commitment to honor nurses for the work they do in helping provide the ideal patient experience at Three Rivers Hospital.

What is your favorite part about being a nurse? “Bonding with patients is the most gratifying part of my job. You learn something new about people every day you work. Involving the situations where you are able to provide a level of support to a patient is the most rewarding part of nursing. Whether that be listening, educating, being present, giving tough love. The list goes on and on. If you can find your niche to serve in a person’s healing process you have done your job. That’s what sends me home feeling satisfied.”
