Nominated by two patient’s families: “Thank you for your kindness and compassion you gave to my mother and me. We truly appreciate that you were there to hold her hand before she lost consciousness. I know it helped reduce her fear and it gave me great peace knowing she didn’t feel alone at that moment. Now I know why nurses are nicknamed “Angels of Mercy”. I will always be grateful to you and God for such a blessing. I pray your career will be of great reward and may God richly bless you always.” “My father was somewhat psychotic from pain meds and was not an easy patient. Amelia was extraordinary. He responded to her well. Despite calls for assistance multiple times per hour, Amelia responded quickly with patience, a smile and a gentle manner. When dad was agitated, she brought her charting “thingy” into his room and worked from there. That was amazing! Putting Amelia’s skills together with her patience and demeanor qualifies her for The DAISY Award.” |
