DAISY Award Presented: Brenner, NP
(Fond du Lac, Wisconsin) – Advanced Correctional Healthcare, Inc. (ACH) is proud to present Nurse Brenner a DAISY Award for extraordinary patient care.
The DAISY Foundation’s DAISY Award recognizes nurses “for the super-human work they do for their patients and families [of the patients] every day.” While the DAISY Award is well-known in the hospital setting, ACH partnered in 2017 as the first and only correctional health care provider to present this award to its associates. When nurses are honored with the DAISY Award, they receive an award certificate, a DAISY pin, and the Healer’s Touch sculpture. They are also featured on the DAISY Foundation’s website.
Nurse Brenner’s nomination stated: “[Marie] truly exemplifies what Florence Nightingale felt a nurse should be. Marie provides competent and compassionate care to each one of her [patients]. She treats them each with dignity. Corrections nursing is not a role for everyone, but if I had to pick someone to be a role model or use as an example, it would be Marie. She handles emergent situations with professionalism and safety. She works well with her staff and the officers. She fills in when it is needed, which is often. There is nothing that she expects from her staff that she would not do herself. She leads by example. She is consistent and firm but understanding. ACH and the nursing profession are so lucky to have Marie and her abilities.”
