Angela Daggett Receives Poplar Bluff Regional Medical Center’s Nursing Excellence Award
12/7/2022
POPLAR BLUFF, Mo – Poplar Bluff Regional Medical Center announced that Registered Nurse Angela Daggett has been selected to receive its Nursing Excellence Award.
The Nursing Excellence Award was created to honor the critical role nurses have played in treating patients throughout the pandemic. The peer-nominated award program was open to qualifying RNs and LPNs working in a direct patient care position who consistently demonstrate characteristics synonymous with nursing excellence. These characteristics include outstanding care, compassion, service and innovation, and reflect the efforts of someone who is a demonstrated team player and/or mentor to others, is a leader in times of crises, and who regularly promotes health in the community.
“Angela represents the foundation, in which nursing was build, daily at our facility. Rarely do you see a young nurse with all the professional characteristics as Angela exhibits. She is the future of care delivery at PBRMC,” Chief Nursing Officer Tim O’Neal said.
Daggett was surprised with the recognition during an all-staff employee celebration meeting with hospital leadership where she was presented with a crystal plaque and a symbolic check for the cash award she received.
Daggett joined PBRMC in 2016 as a patent care tech and in that time has received her nursing degree, received numerous compliments from both patients and staff and always puts the patient first.
In addition to receiving the Nursing Excellence Award itself, Daggett received a cash award and a copy of “Shining the Light on All the Right – Celebrating the Art of Nursing Around the World” by Mark and Bonnie Barnes, co-founders of The DAISY Foundation, an international movement created to recognize and express gratitude for extraordinary nursing.
