DAISY Award

John Muir Health is proud to offer the DAISY Award as a way to honor the compassion and care our nurses provide their patients.  DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune SYstem. The DAISY Award was established by The DAISY Foundation in memory of J. Patrick Barnes, who died at 33 of Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP).  The Barnes Family was profoundly touched by the compassionate care provided by the nursing staff who cared for Patrick. In his memory, they created this meaningful award so others can say thank you to nurses everywhere.

The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses was created to ensure that nurses know how deserving they are of our society's profound respect for the education, training, brainpower, and skill they put into their work, and especially for the care that they share with patients and families.

The DAISY Team Award is designed to honor collaboration by two or more people, led by a nurse, who identify and meet patient and/or patient family needs by going above and beyond the traditional role of nursing.

For more information on The DAISY Award, visit the DAISY Foundation website here.
