Daisy Awards
Mayghen Rains, RN
“Mayghen treated me with the utmost kindness and took measures to protect my privacy and dignity and resolve my issues. I am embarrassed to explain the lengths she went through to ensure my problem resolved, but I thank God that there are people on this earth as caring and compassionate as Mayghen. I could not imagine anyone treating me better. Every time I encounter Mayghen, she goes way out of her way to ensure we are taken care of. Mayghen is an extraordinary nurse.”
The DAISY (Diseases Attacking the Immune System) Award is an international recognition program that honors and celebrates the skillful, compassionate care nurses provide every day.
The DAISY Foundation was established by the family of J. Patrick Barnes after he died from complications of the autoFimmune disease ITP in 1999. During his hospitalization, 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. Please say thank you by sharing your story of how a nurse made a difference you will never forget!
