Two patients nominated Kelli Davis for the exceptional, compassionate care she provides. Both patients described how Kelli consistently made them feel like they were the only patient she had to care for despite the busy hospital setting.

One patient shared:
“Kelli is just so caring and so personal. She always made me feel like I was the only patient in the hospital. I’m starting to realize that all the staff here want us to experience that kind of care—and Kelli leads by example. She instilled in me a real confidence that I was going to heal and be ready to care for myself once I returned home. This has been the most traumatizing wound I’ve ever dealt with, and I’m so thankful for the caring spirit Kelli has shown me. She was especially attentive during my wound care—always wanting to be present for dressing changes and any other care I needed. I just love and appreciate her so much!”

Kelli's actions reflect not only clinical excellence but a deep commitment to treating the whole person. Her presence, empathy, and advocacy make a lasting difference in the lives of those she serves. She is a shining example of what the DAISY Award represents.
