Daisy Nurse Award
The DAISY Committee thoughtfully reviews all nominations every six months. Each nomination is anonymized before being read and considered. Based on predetermined criteria, the committee selects one nurse to receive the DAISY Award. We will notify you if your nurse is selected, and we hope you will join us for the Award presentation! The first honoree will be chosen in May 2026.
Every nurse who is nominated will receive a copy of the nomination, a personal letter from our State Nurse Supervisor, and a special DAISY nominee pin to wear proudly on their badge. Their nurse manager will also be informed of the nomination to help celebrate their incredible work and being nominated for the DAISY Award.
