It is with a humble, sincere, and very grateful heart, and also with great admiration, honor, and delight, that I would like to recognize Mrs. Lisa Larson, RN Coordinator. I have been blessed to have Mrs. Larson as my RN Coordinator for the last two-plus years. She has gone above and beyond to help me with anything I have needed from her service as a nurse. She is a great asset and an outstanding representative of the UW Clinic Nursing Department.

There are many outstanding qualities about Lisa that I would like to express and convey to the UW Health DAISY Award Committee. So, I have decided to write an acrostic with her first and last names to describe her many qualifications and the great service she provides to patients. She is a great asset to the UW Nursing Department, and her qualifications speak highly of the people you hire, so kudos to you all.
