DAISY Award Winners

The DAISY Award® recognizes outstanding licensed nurses for their skillful and compassionate care.

Abigail Warner, B.S.N., R.N.

3Q23, Mullica Hill, ICU

My father was admitted to the ICU, intubated with a tube down his throat and I was at his side by myself. Abby was his nurse and continuously checked in on him, constantly trying to make him more comfortable. She rubbed his hand and talked to him and was so caring. Her bedside manner is so calming. Always with a smile on her face. Abigail made me feel like my father was her only patient. -Patient's Family Member

Michele Alston, R.N.

1Q23, Bridgeton, ED

Michele is extremely reliable and knowledgeable. She goes above and beyond for patients and takes special care of those that frequent the ED—making sure they have food and clothes, and even helping them shower. This nurse is a phenomenal team player. -Colleague

Talonna Shaw

1Q23, Elmer, 2 South PCT

In the short time I have worked with Talonna she has quickly distinguished herself as a caring, thorough and reliable coworker. I know that when she is working my patients will be well-cared-for. More than that, she takes time to bond with her patients and consistently goes above and beyond to give them a positive experience. She is fantastic. She started at Elmer as an agency PCT and is now full time on 2 South. Every patient she comes in contact with has nothing but great things to say about her care. She always goes the extra mile for her patients whether it means actively listening or fluffing their pillows. -Colleague

William Wentz

1Q23,

Bridgeton Security

William is a dedicated employee who always goes above and beyond to protect patients, staff and visitors alike. Bill has a proven track record of excellence and dedication toward all those he comes in contact with. Several weeks ago, Bill encountered a patient in the emergency room parking lot unconscious with no pulse. His fast-acting response in alerting staff no doubt saved the patient's life. Bill has always gone out of his way to train and mentor new officers. He has dedicated his life to making sure policies and procedures have been followed to ensure the safety of his peers and staff alike. -Colleague
