• 13 September 2023

Kristen Hill, RN, is the recipient of the August 2023 CMH DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses. She is a registered nurse with Citizens Memorial Hospital’s Home Care Services.

She was nominated for the DAISY Award by a patient’s children.

“Kristen made us feel at ease with taking care of our mom,” the nomination states. “Kristen explained everything we needed to know about helping our mom. But the most important thing she did was she showed our mom love and compassion. She was so gentle and caring in taking care of her. She has a heart of gold, which is why I believe Kristen is in hospice care. She is an angel sent by God!”

About the DAISY Award

DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System. The DAISY Foundation established the award in memory of J. Patrick Barnes, who died at 33 of an auto-immune disease. The international award thanks nurses everywhere.

CMH started the DAISY Award program in January 2019. A CMH or Citizens Memorial Health Care Foundation nurse receives the award each month.
