August 2021 DAISY Award

DAISY 2021

Jonathan Keizer, RN – E4 – Medical/Neuro ICU

Please join the Center for Nursing Excellence in congratulating Dasie Jackson, RN for being selected as the DAISY Award recipient for the month of August!

Jonathan works on E4 – Medical/Neuro ICU and was nominated by a co-worker.  The nomination below reflects how Jonathan impacted their life in a very special way.

“Jonathan consistently displays care and thoughtfulness with his patients, but today he went above and beyond.  We have a husband and wife both in ICU with COVID19.  Unfortunately, the wife just lost her baby after being intubated.  Due to visitation restrictions, neither have been able to have visitors.  Jonathan, serving as the nurse for the husband, coordinated with the charge nurse on the wife’s unit to enable the husband to be able to visit his wife.  This required arrangement with nurses, respiratory therapists, PCTs, and multiple medical teams.  Jonathan went out of his way to be able to provide support and care for a family going through unimaginable loss.  He’s a true example of excellence in nursing!”

Great job, Jonathan!
