Lakeview Regional Names Jhanve Nolde as DAISY Award Winner

Lakeview Regional Medical Center, a campus of Tulane Medical Center, presented medical surgical nurse Jhanve Nolde with the DAISY Award for the second quarter of 2022. The DAISY Award is a nationwide program that honors and celebrates the outstanding work nurses do for patients and families every day. Two patients nominated her for her compassion and bedside manner.
 
In nominating Nolde, a patient wrote, "She was so polite, great bedside manners, and was there when you needed her. She is awesome." A second nomination stated, "She went above and beyond, not only taking care of me physically in a super-timely fashion, but also providing me with emotional support during a really tough time in my life. I really don’t think I could have gotten over my trauma accident without her . . .She was truly compassionate about my getting better and my healing."
 
The family of J. Patrick Barnes established the DAISY Foundation after he died from complications of the auto-immune disease ITP in 1999. During his hospitalization, they deeply appreciated the care and compassion shown to Patrick and his entire family. When he died, they felt compelled to say "thank you" to nurses in a very public way.
