With nurses burdened with so many extra duties this past year, MHG implemented the new award program to thank its hard-working team and recognize their outstanding efforts through difficult times. With no visitors, nurses are spending more hours with each of their patients to lend an ear, hold a hand or simply be present. They deserve to be acknowledged in the best of times, and should be celebrated for their unrelenting care of others during this particularly challenging year.

The Daisy Award is an international program that was founded in 1999 in honor of J. Patrick Barnes, who passed away at the age of 33 from an auto-immune disease, as a way to say "thank you" to nurses for the extraordinary jobs they do every day. DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Affecting the Immune System. Each of the 1000+ hospitals that participate in the award hold their own nominations and award presentations.
