Congratulations to Sara Medeiros, a registered nurse in the personnel pool at Methodist Jennie Edmundson Hospital, for being honored with The DAISY Award. Her nominator wrote:
“I was crying, full of anxiety, couldn’t focus, couldn’t relax or calm down. She talked to me, calmed me down, and listened to me – didn’t say, ‘I know what you’re going through.’ That was good because that would’ve stressed me out. I react to things like that. She really wants to help people get better. We need nurses like that: compassionate. Thank you for giving me hope again.”
