Critical Care Nurse Amy Masengale, RN, was honored with the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses at Sarah Bush Lincoln on February 27.
Masengale was nominated by a daughter who was grateful for the compassionate care she provided to her mother at the end of her life. In her nomination letter, the patient’s daughter wrote:
“My mother had surgery recently. Due to complications after the surgery she was placed in the Critical Care Unit where she later passed away. Amy was her nurse and tended to her with such compassion and care. Amy was constantly explaining what was happening to my mom, whether it be taking blood to administrating the numerous bags of IV medication. She and the doctor did everything they could to try to save her, but unfortunately it was her time.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
