The Daisy Award

From OHC

November 1, 2021

OHC is proud to be part of The DAISY Award program. We recognize the selfless care OHC nurses provide to our patients every day.

An acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune SYstem, The DAISY Foundation was formed in November 1999 by the family of J. Patrick Barnes who died at age 33 of complications of the Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP). The nursing care Patrick received when hospitalized profoundly touched his family. They created this international award to say thank you to nurses everywhere.
