DAISY Awards
Want to Say Thank You To Your Nurse or Midwife? Please share your story
The DAISY (Diseases Attacking the Immune System) Award is an international recognition programme that honours and celebrates the skilful, compassionate care nurses & midwives provide every day. The DAISY Foundation was established by the family of J. Patrick Barnes after he died from complications of the auto-immune disease ITP in 1999. During his hospitalisation, they deeply appreciated the care and compassion shown to Patrick and his entire family. When he died, they felt compelled to say “thank you” to nurses in a very public way.
Each DAISY Award Hounoree will be recognised at a ceremony in their ward or department.
