“Barbara consistently works hard to give patients and families the care they need. One story in particular demonstrates her expertise and compassion—she came back after hours to urgently discharge a patient, coordinating everything within 30 minutes to honor their final wishes. She treated the family and patient with compassion that I am confident they will never forget. She helped to ease their pain at the most difficult moment. Barbara deserves this nomination for more reasons than one. She is a phenomenal nurse that demonstrates compassion, gentleness, and understanding. She goes above and beyond what is asked of her. Barbara was a blessing in the middle of a stressful and emotional situation, educating the family on end-of-life care and medication administration while helping set up home care at the end of the day. Her passion is inspiring to not only me but many other caregivers.” Thank you and congratulations, Barbara! Your compassion and dedication make a difference every day. 🌼 #DAISYAward #NursingExcellence #StartsWithHeart

"When I came in, I was very sick. This young lady came in for bathing. She washed my hair. I asked if anyone knew how to French braid. She jumped right up and said, 'I can do it.' And she kept it up the whole time I was there. Victoria made me laugh and feel comfortable. She was so kind and uplifting, she was an angel in scrubs. 'My Angel.'
