Receiving The DAISY Award® entitles Honorees to numerous benefits in addition to their recognition as extraordinary compassionate nurses. I am eager for you to be aware of a benefit that is especially relevant to NADONA and your members:

DAISY Honorees are eligible to apply for a scholarship to a conference (in person or virtually) of their choice to support their professional advancement. 10 DAISY Nurses (regardless of the year they received the DAISY Award) will be selected, based on applications submitted. Each will receive up to $2,000 as a conference scholarship.

Our long-time industry partner, Cherokee Medical Uniforms, has generously funded conference scholarships for DAISY Honorees since 2017.

We would be grateful if you could share this opportunity with your network!
