Rose McPherson, RN, with the McLeod Health Seacoast Emergency Department was recently announced as a DAISY Award recipient. She was nominated by several patients for her extraordinary care and compassion.

Each patient shared what led to her recognition, “Rose made sure I was calm and comfortable after my car accident. She also went out of her way to ensure my family was comfortable as well.”

“Rose took the most attentive care of my autistic son the whole time we were at McLeod Health Seacoast. She eased his fears by telling him what was going on.” 

“Rose was so pleasant and patient with my sister when she was here for a car accident. She went out of her way to make sure we were all comfortable during her visit. She was very attentive and friendly.”

To recognize those Nurses at McLeod Health who are true examples of Nursing Excellence, patients, family members and co-workers may nominate nurses for the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses. The award is part of the DAISY Foundation’s program to recognize the super-human efforts nurses perform every day.
