Congratulations to our 2024 December Daisy Honoree, Macy Kranz, RN/4 Rehab.

Her nomination read: “After a horrible first night on 4th Rehab, Macy was an angel that was so caring and compassionate and took the time to listen to my concerns and make sure things were done correctly. She would make sure my meds were on time so she set a timer on her watch to give me my meds and if she could not get it to me another kind nurse would do it for her. She was a great nurse advocate for me
passed on to other nurses that were taking over how she did things that were working. She recognized my pain as legitimate and did not make me feel like I
was making pain more than what it was. The numerous shifts that she took care of
me, she continued with our plan and I never had to worry that something was not going to be taken care of. She is a true nurse with a heart of gold!”

Congratulations to our 2024 December Daisy Honoree, Michelle Jenczmionka, Clinical Nurse Educator/Education.

Her nomination read: “We would like to give recognition to Michelle for her exceptional care. The patient began to bleed profusely, creating a life threatening situation. Despite the chaos and urgency, Michelle remained calm, efficient, and decisive. Her quick thinking and expertise were pivotal in stabilizing the patient. She provided clear and confident direction to the entire team, ensuring that everyone worked cohesively to save this patients life. Due to Michelle’s efforts, the patient was stabilized and transferred to a higher level hospital for continued care. This transfer would not have been possible without her incredible skill, focus, and dedication. The patient is now alive and recovering, thanks to Michelle’s outstanding ability to manage the crisis and advocate for their care. Her actions that day exemplified the very best of nursing, clinical excellence, compassionate care, and unwavering commitment to her patients. We are fortunate to have such an extraordinary nurse on our team. It’s people like Michelle who make me proud to be in this profession. Thank you Michelle for being a true life saver and inspiring us all.”
