September 2026 Honoree
Laura Clifford
Laura Clifford demonstrated exceptional care, compassion, and support she provided to my wife and me during one of the most difficult times of our lives.
After receiving the heartbreaking news that we had suffered a miscarriage, we were overwhelmed with grief, uncertainty, and countless questions. Throughout this experience, Laura went above and beyond to ensure that we felt cared for, informed, and supported.
One of the first things Laura did was arrange a private space for us within the hospital, allowing us to receive treatment and consultations away from the busy clinical environment. This simple but thoughtful action gave us the privacy and dignity we needed during such an emotional and vulnerable time.
Laura took the time to explain everything clearly and thoroughly, providing us with all the information and advice we needed to understand our options and what to expect. No question was too small, and she answered every one of our concerns with patience, kindness, and professionalism. Her knowledge and reassurance helped us navigate an incredibly distressing situation with greater confidence and understanding.
Most importantly, Laura treated us with genuine compassion. She made us feel as comfortable as possible and ensured that we felt listened to, respected, and supported throughout our care. Her empathy and dedication had a profound impact on us and helped ease the burden of an experience that will stay with us forever.
We will always be grateful for the care Laura provided. She exemplifies the very best of nursing, and we cannot think of anyone more deserving of recognition through the DAISY Award.
Thank you, Laura, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
