Well-deserved recognition for RN, Dylan!

Aya RN, Dylan, was acknowledged by his nurse manager for providing amazing care:

“I just wanted to recognize and let you know what an exemplary RN Dylan is. He floated to our unit on Monday 7a shift. He was very sociable, pleasant and professional. He provided excellent care and every time I rounded the unit he was going from room to room and engaged with caring and compassion. I overheard and watched him patiently assist a stroke patient with their lunch — he was never impatient nor rushed and was present in the moment. The conversations he carried on with his patients and the interest he had in them were above and beyond. I truly wish we had him as a dedicated associate. He’s an asset to the facility and the profession. If there is any way to recognize him please do.”

Wow, Dylan! This is amazing. Thank you for the incredible care you give your patients.

Crystal was nominated for a DAISY Award!

Aya traveler, Crystal, received a very heartfelt DAISY nomination from a patient’s wife. Read the nomination below:

“Crystal made my husband’s stay tolerable. She was an exceptional nurse, helping with his care plan and making sure he felt safe and cared for, and she was very compassionate. No matter the situation, she approached it with heart and soul. She went beyond the call to duty, staying late, to make sure he was ok. She helped me form intelligent questions for doctors and explained when the doctor left, if necessary. She was just remarkable and the perfect example of what a nurse should be for a patient.”

Wow, Crystal! This is amazing. Thank you for going beyond the call of duty.

Here are some words from the patient’s daughter:

“I just want to let you know how much you meant to my family. I feel like you treated my family with such kindness and love. Thank you for always having my family’s best interest in mind. My family would have loved to have known you. I’m sure you hear it all the time, but my family member was truly one of the greats. My family member has helped so many people in this world, and never took anything too seriously except an unshakeable love for the family. I wish you had a chance to hear my family member’s amazing laugh and get one of their world-famous hugs. So, from me and my family…Thank you. You are truly an angel on Earth, and we will always remember what you did for us.”
