Clare is the kind of nurse we want to take care of our love one. The kind of nurse we want working by our side. The kind of nurse we want to be. The kind of nurse who exemplifies all qualities of DAISY by holding herself and her teammates accountable to high standards, and at the same time supporting and caring to all patients and coworkers alike.
On a particular Saturday night, Clare saved a patient's life by picking up a few clinical indicators that he was bleeding out; she immediately took action by transferring him to a higher care ICU where he was found to be bleeding internally. Clare continued visiting the patient in the hospital because she realized that the patient trusted her and his recuperation will be faster if she continues coaching him to health.
