Nurses Week is a great time to recognize Emanuel Medical Center DAISY award winner, Caleb Burton, RN. Caleb was nominated by the family of a patient he cared for during two of their stays at EMC. "It is an honor to nominate Caleb Burton for the DAISY Award. He is a blessing to the nursing profession and is a fine, Christian man. We first met Caleb and his beautiful smile and great personality in June 2019 when our daddy was admitted to Emanuel Medical Center. At that time, Caleb worked the night shift, and it was comforting to us to have him there because Daddy was strong. We felt Caleb could manage Daddy if he were to become disoriented. Caleb was very attentive and professional as well as compassionate and caring. Not only did he make sure Daddy was comfortable, but he made sure we were, too. Caleb took great care of us all. We were updated often as to Daddy's health, and our questions and concerns were answered. At the end of each shift, Caleb came by to let us know he was leaving and to let us know when he would be back. He also told us he would be praying for Daddy and for the family. When Daddy was well enough to leave the hospital, we were satisfied with the care Caleb had given him, and our family had made a new friend. In February 2022, Daddy once again was admitted to Emanuel Medical Center, and yes, Caleb was his night nurse. We were overjoyed to know that Daddy would have excellent care. Just as before, Caleb kept us updated as to Daddy's condition, and he made sure we were comfortable and had all we needed while we stayed at the hospital. Caleb was not working when Daddy passed away February 26, 2022, but he and his family sent flowers to the service and prayed for our family. We have kept in touch with him and feel blessed to call him a friend. We have told him on numerous occasions that we want him to take care of us if we are patients as Emanuel Medical Center. Friends have expressed to us their experiences with Caleb, and they have the same stories as to his dedication to the nursing profession and to his patients and their families." Caleb, you are absolutely an asset to the EMC team and we're proud of the extraordinary work you do every day! Congratulations! Congratulations to all of our DAISY Award Nominee's! #DAISYAward

To all nurses making a difference with every act of kindness, every patient interaction, and every moment of care: You are invaluable 💙
