This award is presented to nurses who go above and beyond in the delivery of clinical excellence and compassionate care as they are working with patients. DAISY Awards are presented at Beebe on a quarterly basis.

The family who nominated Grandbois stated, “During a critical time when my husband was in the ICU, she went above and beyond, providing exceptional care. What truly set her apart was not only her medical expertise, but her compassion and dedication to ensuring that I, as a family member, felt informed and supported. Brittany patiently answered all my questions, translating complex medical jargon into understandable terms, and consistently demonstrated a genuine concern for both my husband’s well-being and my own peace of mind.”

During a surprise ceremony at the hospital, Grandbois was presented with a DAISY certificate and a hand-carved Healer’s Touch sculpture inscribed with the words “In deep appreciation of all you do, who you are, and the incredibly meaningful difference you make in the lives of so many people.”

The DAISY Foundation was established by family members in memory of J. Patrick Barnes, who died at the age of 33 in 1999 from complications of an autoimmune disease called Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP). The care Patrick and his family received from nurses while he was ill inspired a new way of thanking nurses for making a profound difference in the lives of their patients and their families.
