April 2021 DAISY Award

Mariana-Zermeno_F7_DAISY_April-2021Mariana Zermeno, RN – F7 – Stem Cell Transplant/MIRT

Please join the Center for Nursing Excellence in congratulating Mariana Zermeno, RN for being selected as the DAISY Award recipient for the month of April!

Mariana works on F7 – Stem Cell Transplant/MIRT and was nominated by a Patient.  The nomination below reflects how Mariana impacted their life in a very special way.

“From my first few moments with Mariana I knew she was special.  She had a kind presence about her.  As she began to review my care plan with me, I could tell she had a strong understanding of what had occurred, what was occurring, and will likely occur.  She was patient with my questions and made me feel like I was her top priority.  She continued to be thorough, efficient and professional throughout her shift and communicated with my daughter patiently and professionally.  I was fortunate to have her a second night in a row and she again gave me confidence that I was getting what I needed and why.  She is truly a gem of a person and especially a nurse.”

Great job, Mariana Zermeno!
