Congratulations to Zhania Hall, RN, our newest DAISY Award winner! Zhania cares for patients in our emergency department and was nominated by a former patient’s family member who wrote:

“Zhania embodies everything nursing is meant to be. She is clinically sharp, attentive, and safe, but what sets her apart is her integrity. She advocates fiercely for her patients, thinks critically, and refuses to let anyone be overlooked. She balances kindness with strength and is not afraid to stand firm when it matters most.”

The Daisy Award celebrates nurses, both in our hospital and clinics, who go above and beyond to provide extraordinary patient care every day.

Anyone can show their appreciation for an outstanding nurse by nominating them for a DAISY Award at bit.ly/3TRTzhI.
