OSF Saint Anthony’s also recently honored two (2) Mission Partners within its nursing ranks for their service in administering care to patients as part of its quarterly recognition program.
Chris Tilson, RN, Medical/Surgical Unit, received the DAISY Award. Ms. Tilson’s nomination was submitted by a patient and read in part: “Chris works so hard in getting things done for me. When I needed something it was more like asking a friend instead of a nurse. I feel like sometimes people are afraid to get close to their patient. She always has a smile on her face. I enjoy talking to Chris a lot. She made me work harder to get better. I will say next to my daughter, Chris is the best nurse. If I’m sick and had to be put in the hospital I would want to be at OSF Saint Anthony’s with her as my nurse.”
The DAISY Award For Extraordinary Nurses (The DAISY Award) is a recognition program that honors the super-human work nurses do for patients and families every day. More information on the DAISY Award can be found by visiting www.daisyfoundation.org.
Shyanna Hill, CNA, Medical/Surgical Unit, was the recipient of the most recent quarter’s Sunflower Award. Shyanna, too, was nominated by a patient who submitted the following: “I was so happy that I had Shyanna as my CNA. I just love her. She is so caring and always has a smile on her face. Shyanna makes your stay comfortable. She is so caring and she doesn’t mind doing anything to help. Shyanna is an outstanding member of your staff. She is perfect and wonderful.”
