Another patient added their gratitude for Taylor’s “hard work and dedication. Taylor takes care of your every want and needs. She is sweet and well mannered. It is a pleasure to be in Taylor’s presence. It is an honor to have Taylor as my nurse.”

"Taylor exemplifies the true spirit of kindness and compassion in nursing. She embodies the qualities we all hope to experience in our caregivers," said Marie Burdett, MSN, RN, Chief Nursing Officer at East Georgia Regional Hospital. "Her dedication and empathy make her truly deserving of this recognition, and we are honored to have her as a valued member of our team.”

Nurses may be nominated for the DAISY Award by patients, family members, and colleagues. The award recipient is chosen by a committee at EGRMC.

"We are proud to be part of The DAISY Award program, which celebrates the extraordinary efforts of nurses," Stephen Pennington, CEO of East Georgia Regional Medical Center. "Nurses are everyday heroes, and it is essential that we recognize their invaluable contributions. The DAISY Foundation provides a meaningful way to show our appreciation. We are delighted to honor Taylor with this award and thank her for the safe, compassionate care she provides to all her patients."

The DAISY Foundation is a not-for-profit organization, established by the family of J. Patrick Barnes. Patrick died at the age of 33 in late 1999 from complications of Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura, an auto-immune disease. DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System. The care Patrick and his family received from nurses while he was ill inspired this unique means of thanking nurses for making a profound difference in the lives of their patients and patient families.
