Nursing student Hai Le.<\/p><\/div>\n

June 7, 2022–Two <\/span>Missouri Western State University nursing students were awarded DAISY Awards for Extraordinary Nursing Students for the spring 2022 semester.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Hai Le, third semester nursing student from Lee\u2019s Summit, Missouri, and Shayla Bocchine, fourth semester nursing student from Agency, Missouri, were honored as part of the DAISY Foundation’s programs to recognize compassionate and excellent nurses and nursing students.<\/span><\/p>\n

Le\u2019s nominator pointed to his compassion for a supervising nurse who had gone without lunch when he was with her for clinicals. The next time he was paired with the nurse, he saw that the nurse again had a busy schedule, and used his lunch break to purchase lunch for her and ensure she took a quick break to eat.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cHai\u2019s compassion for this nurse and his decision to act on the nurse\u2019s behalf is a valuable character trait in a nurse,\u201d the nominator said. \u201cHis future patients and co-workers will be very lucky and blessed to have him as an advocate and support.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Shayla’s nominator said she prioritizes the needs of patients and families.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cShe is excited about new experiences and has acquired a variety of nursing skills during her rotation in the I.C.U.,\u201d the nominator said. \u201cShe is a very effective communicator. Shayla is very compassionate and exemplifies what it means to be an excellent nurse.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
