Congratulations to Marcy Peekenschneider, RN, latest DAISY award winner!

Marcy Peekenschneider, RN with the Pediatric Emergency Department at Blank Children’s Hospital, recently received the DAISY Award for her outstanding dedication to a patient and their family. The DAISY Award is given to a phenomenal nurse who has shown the utmost compassion and care for their patients. Marcy was recognized for her compassion and personality from the parent of a patient.

The patient’s mother shared her gratitude for Marcy upon a return visit to the hospital. The mother said, “We were immediately taken right under Marcy’s wing and she put our minds at ease that we had made the right decision and were in the right place. When we had to come back the next day, she jumped right back in and even remembered my daughter’s love of warm blankets and favorite color of popsicles.” Great job, Marcy!
