Evans Army Community Hospital hosted a DAISY Award Ceremony April 21, 2025, to recognize nurses for the kind, compassionate care they provide to patients. Four individual winners and a care team were selected from among nearly 60 nominees.
Patients and/or peers submitted nominations for the quarterly award, which recognizes outstanding nursing care for January-March, 2025.
During the ceremony, nominators read their nominations aloud as awards were presented to the winners.
Col. Allan Boudreaux, the EACH deputy commander for nursing, said the awards help recognize the extraordinary providers who work at EACH and thanked the award winners for their service.
“Thank you so much for taking the time to deliver that compassionate touch, that five minutes of education, or that voice of reassurance in a moment where our patients are experiencing fear and uncertainty,” said Boudreaux. “We have all been there – either as a patient or a family member. And it’s so reassuring when someone goes above and beyond to provide safe, compassionate care.”
DAISY is an acronym for “Diseases Attacking the Immune System” and the award was established in 1999 by members of the family of Patrick Barnes, who died from complications of Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The family was looking for a way to recognize the outstanding care Barnes received during his illness and came up with the DAISY Award program
