 Cheryl is a leader who works much of her time behind the scenes. She creates an environment where every other “DAISY” on the unit has the chance to bloom. She is a compassionate and knowledgeable leader whose quiet strength and unwavering support have an immeasurable impact on both staff and patients. Her exceptional ability to perform every role on this unit with excellence makes her invaluable.

Cheryl goes the extra mile in every aspect of her role, but her ability to step back and allow others to shine demonstrates her commitment to developing the talent around her. The combination of her clinical knowledge, empathy, and ability to empower her team makes her a standout DAISY Nurse.  She consistently models the highest standards of care and professionalism. The compassionate care that the DAISY Award celebrates is made possible by her. For every daisy on the unit that gets the chance to grow, there is a dedicated gardener like Cheryl making it possible.
