In May, Rutland Regional was proud to present the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses to two individual nurses as well as a DAISY Team Award. We are so proud to recognize Lindsay LaFerriere (Psychiatric Services Inpatient Unit) and Cassie Harnett (Progressive Care Unit) for their excellence in nursing care. These individuals reflect the extraordinary and compassionate care that they provide to their patients. Also recognized was the Operating Room Team, who showed through collaboration among nursing staff and others extraordinary patient care by going above and beyond the traditional role of nursing.Congratulations to all Rutland Regional DAISY Award Winners!For all the pictures from that day, visit our Smugmug: https://lnkd.in/g4KwvSkQ
