Emily State - Daisy Award

Emily State is the new nurse in The Meadows Assisted Living. The residents are so delighted to have her skills, dedication, compassion, and caring heart. Emily brings all of the patients and their families so much care, joy, critical thinking, and leadership. She is also able to adapt to the residents’ ways, but is also great at getting them to try new ideas. The 21 residents at assisted living all give her so much praise, and they are always stating how knowledgeable she is. Emily makes them feel like they are her only patient, taking care of things immediately, and always going above and beyond. I could list many specifics, but all of the residents think she needs to be recognized for her skill, passion, and leadership. We are lucky to have Emily as she spreads her love and joy of nursing to the residents and their families.
