These awards recognize nurses, nursing school faculty, and nursing students for demonstrating an above-and-beyond commitment to care for patients and their families. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are proud to celebrate this milestone in nursing recognition,\u201d said Connie De La Cruz, Co-Founder and Chairman of Health Carousel Philippines. \u201cHealth Carousel Philippines is dedicated to the nurses who keep our healthcare system running and provide essential care to patients worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2018, Health Carousel\nbegan its relationship with The DAISY Foundation\u2122 and started collecting\npatient nominations for the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses. A corporate\ncommittee meets quarterly to review the nominations and selects one nurse from\nHealth Carousel Philippines and each U.S. corporate division who exemplifies\nthe DAISY Award\u2019s focus on above-and-beyond compassionate care. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, as The DAISY Foundation sought to provide meaningful recognition of nurses in developing countries where funding was a barrier, Health Carousel stepped up and became DAISY\u2019s first International Advocate, underwriting the awards program in Uganda, Ghana, and Cameroon. Most recently, Health Carousel underwrote the first ever DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nursing Faculty and Nursing Students awards on the continent of Africa at EXIST University School of Nursing in Cameroon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The 100th award celebration took place in Cebu, Philippines. While every DAISY Award celebration is a tale of the super-human work nurses do for patients and families daily, it is hard to imagine a story that better embodies the optimism we should have for the future of nursing globally. In this instance, Angyl Fayth Ababat, a student nurse saved the life of an elderly vendor out on the streets of Cebu who suffered a knife wound to her neck. She performed her life-saving duty as having been trained despite not knowing if the attacker was nearby and ready to strike again. In recognition of her extraordinary care, Health Carousel Philippines awarded her The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nursing Students in front of 749 nursing students, nursing faculty, parents, and guests attending her nurse capping ceremony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a time when headlines\nhighlight nursing shortages and the impact it has on access to care, it&#8217;s\nreassuring that organizations such as Health Carousel, Health Carousel\nPhilippines, and The DAISY Foundation are working together to improve workforce\nsatisfaction and retention through meaningful nurse recognition. Meanwhile,\nHealth Carousel&#8217;s demonstrated commitment to lighting the way in global nursing\nsustainability and development programs is growing even stronger with the\nformation of the Health Carousel Foundation at the end of 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The DAISY Foundation sought to provide meaningful recognition of nurses in developing countries where funding was a barrier, Health Carousel stepped up and became DAISY\u2019s first International Advocate, underwriting the awards program in Uganda, Ghana, and Cameroon.
