Jackson Latest Recipient Of DAISY Award For Extraordinary Nurses

 In Local News

Newberry Health is proud to announce that Jennie Jackson, RN, BSN has been
named the latest recipient of the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses, a national recognition
honoring the compassionate care and clinical excellence nurses provide every day.

Jennie was nominated by a grateful patient who highlighted the meaningful impact she made
during their hospital stay. In part, the nomination reads:

“I would like to thank my nurse Jennie… she explained things to me about my surgery. She
wrote down times I could ask for my pain meds (which was very helpful). The day after surgery
was my birthday. Jennie made me a sweet birthday card and had everyone sign it. It choked me
up. She also gave me a candy bar!”

This recognition reflects Jennie’s commitment to not only delivering excellent clinical care, but
also creating personal, compassionate connections with her patients during vulnerable moments.

“Jennie exemplifies the kind of nurse every patient hopes to have at their bedside,” said John
Snow, CEO of Newberry Health. “Her attention to detail, thoughtful communication, and
genuine compassion make a lasting difference for the patients we serve. We are incredibly proud
to have her on our team.”

The DAISY Award is part of an international program that celebrates nurses who go above and
beyond in providing outstanding care. Jennie was selected from numerous nominations
submitted by patients, families, and colleagues.

Please join us in congratulating Jennie Jackson, RN, on this well-deserved honor.
