IONIA, MI – Sparrow Ionia Hospital has honored Nurse Courtney Pett, BSN, RN, with a DAISY Award for extraordinary nurses in recognition of her patient-centered approach to care.

The DAISY Award is an international program that rewards and celebrates the extraordinary, compassionate and skillful care given by nurses every day.

Pett, who works in Sparrow Ionia’s Surgery Department, was lauded for her professional and positive attitude, and always being willing to help wherever there is a need. Patients were quick to comment that she helped them relax before surgery and was helpful through their whole procedure.

“Courtney is a great nurse who puts her patients’ priorities above her own. She is very deserving of this, and I am so happy she’s part of our great surgical team,” said Matt Gerred, BSN, RN, Manager of Surgical Services.

Pett was presented the award in a recent ceremony. She has been employed at Sparrow Ionia since October 2016 and lives in the Lyons/

Muir area with her husband and three children.

DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System. The DAISY Award is a national program created in memory of J. Patrick Barnes who died in 1999 of Idiopathic Thrombocytopenia Purpura, or ITP, at age 33. His family was overwhelmed by the skillful and compassionate nurses who cared for him, and the DAISY Foundation and Award were created in gratitude.

Pett received a certificate, a DAISY pin, and a beautiful stone sculpture called A Healer’s Touch, hand-carved by artists of the Shona Tribe in Zimbabwe. The sculpture depicts the embracing relationship Nurses have with their Patients.

Other nominees were: May Finos, BSN, RN, Surgery Department; Brooke Jackson, RN, Med/Surg; Shannon Jones, BSN, RN, Infusion/ Oncology Department; Cara Miller, RN, Med/Surg; Hally Reule, RN, Med/Surg; Terri Rowley, RN, Surgery Department; and Victoria Stiffler, RN, Emergency Department.

Sparrow unveils new “Wear a mask. Save a life” campaign

LANSING, MI – Sparrow has kicked off a new public service campaign, “Wear a mask. Save a life,” designed to emphasize what’s at stake in protecting ourselves from the spread of COVID-19.

Leading Sparrow clinicians urge everyone to follow expert-recommended safety protocols, including wearing a mask, to slow the spread of the virus and help avoid another deadly wave.

“By covering your mouth, nose and chin, you’re significantly lowering the chances of spreading infection through small droplets that come out of your mouth when you talk, sneeze and cough,” said Karen Kent VanGorder, M.D., Sparrow’s Chief Medical and Quality Officer; Alan Vierling, DNP, MSN, RN, Sparrow Hospital President; and Denny Martin, M.D., FACOOG, Sparrow Hospital Chief Medical Officer.

Everyone at a Sparrow site of care, whether it is patients, caregivers, visitors and executives, are required to wear a face mask.

“Wearing a mask can be uncomfortable. It’s never been required in our lifetimes and it’s not natural to many of us,” the Sparrow clinical leaders said. “But our message is not going to change: Everyone who comes to Sparrow will be screened and you must wear a mask. But we’re not asking people to do it because it’s required, we’re asking them to do it to save the lives of their fellow human beings.”

Sparrow has been a leader in providing personal protective equipment to our patients and caregivers during the pandemic and in testing the community.

The “Wear a mask. Save a life” campaign will be seen in local advertising, social media, and throughout Sparrow. Go to Sparrow.org/Forward for more information.

“Imagine Your Story” at the Portland District Library with this year’s Summer Reading Program. This year will look a bit different, but we hope that everyone in your family will have something to enjoy! Sign up for the reading program today! Challenges are available for all ages including the Littles (0-5), Middles (6-12), Teens (13-18), and Adults (18+). The traditional paper option can be signed up for at the library or you can go to pdl.beanstack. org to register for our virtual summer reading program.

Both programs offer the same challenges, it just depends on whether you and your family want to go virtual this year!

Summer reading will run from Monday, July 20th until Friday, August 28th.

Have you missed coming to storytime at the Portland District Library? Get ready, because storytime is now coming to you! Busy Bees (ages 0-3) and Book Cubs (ages 3+) are both going virtual this summer, and a partnership with Ionia Great Start Collaborative brings the new “Talking is Teaching” initiative to your homes. Storytime videos will be available each week starting Mondays at 10:00 am and families can watch them over and over until the end of summer reading.

Busy Bees will require a onetime sign up, at which time each family will receive a sensory bag with reusable items, whereas Book Cubs will require weekly registration and bag pick up that includes all the materials needed to complete that week’s activity. Registration for both programs is now available!
