2022 Winner: Angie Brooks, BSN, RN

The fifth annual DAISY Award recipient at William Newton Hospital is Angie Brooks, BSN, RN. The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses® is part of the DAISY Foundation's mission to recognize the extraordinary, compassionate care nurses provide patients and families every day.
Angie is a Labor & Delivery nurse in our Family Birthing Center and has been with WNH since March 1991. Angie's nomination states “She made me feel super comfortable, loved, and was such an easy person to be around. She got me everything I needed and was so knowledgeable about every concern I had with anything - breastfeeding or pain. She has such a radiant personality. You couldn't help but cling to her. I wish I could take her home. We appreciate everything you did for us and hope to have you again one day."
Angie was surprised by her family and friends who visited our campus to help present the award, along with the WNH senior administration team and our Quality Improvement Manager. While receiving the recognition, Angie signed a traveling DAISY Award banner that will be displayed on the OB unit for the rest of the year. 

Please join us in thanking Angie and all of our extraordinary nurses for their continued dedication to their field.
