We are #StLukesProud to recognize Slavka Morrison, RN, Acute Care Nurse at St. Luke’s University Hospital in Bethlehem, as our latest DAISY Award winner. Slavka was nominated by a grateful patient who shared, “Slavka was there for me during one of the most life-changing moments of my life. After receiving devastating news, I was alone and distraught. Slavka comforted me with a hug, a warm blanket and a cool compress for my tears. She treated me like family and showed me such kindness and compassion that I’ll never forget. Her knowledge, faith and gentle spirit made me feel safe, seen and cared for.” Thank you, Slavka for delivering exceptional care the St. Luke’s way! The DAISY Award is an international recognition program that honors and celebrates the skillful, compassionate care nurses provide every day.
