CHI Health St. Francis recognizes Emergency Department nurse Amanda Bush, RN, its most recent DAISY Award recipient. Bush is recognized for excellence in nursing and providing above-and-beyond compassionate care to her patients and their families.
The hospital chooses one recipient monthly from the many nominations submitted by patients, families and staff.
A grateful patient writes: “Having chest pain that takes your breath away is scary. Amanda was not only kind, she was caring and compassionate. Amanda calmed every fear I had. This ER visit was very pleasant (while unpleasant) and I credit that to my nurse Amanda.”
