DAISY Nurse Stays Past Shift for Patient Experiencing Difficult Recovery

Congratulations Brittany Hearyman, RN, for being named a DAISY Award winner!

Brittany works in 3S Stepdown at CHI St. Vincent North and was nominated for the award by a coworker.

The coworker said Brittany goes above and beyond to take care of patients. For example, a recent patient was experiencing severe communication difficulties and Brittany was able to figure out what was needed and offer solutions.

Not only did she care for this patient by constantly tending to his needs, but she even stayed after her shift to give him a bath.

“Brittany is caring, kind, very thorough and hard working. I couldn’t imagine a better person to help the patient as he recovers from his surgery. I appreciate the chance to share this feedback and I am sincerely grateful for this nurse’s work.”
