Lynn Byrd
NICU - Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Please join us in celebrating the outstanding achievements of Lynn Byrd,
the recipient of the October 2016 DAISY Award. The DAISY Award For Extraordinary
Nurses is a program adopted by Kaweah Delta to honor the super-human work
nurses do for patients and families every day. By nomination from her
peers, Lynn exemplified the values of Kaweah Care.
Nomination by Susanne Kellogg
“Lynn has such a gift of love and such a unique way of care with
the infants she cares for. She is very compassionate to the infant with
her touch times, she speaks to them as if they understand her and devotes
quality time to each infant as if that baby were her own child. When the
parents come to visit, she laughs and talks with them, always providing
forms of education through demonstration or reassurance. I love to watch
how Lynn provides care. It encourages me as a nurse in the NICU.”
To pay tribute to Lynn for demonstrating exceptional talents, dedication
and service to patients, she received a one of kind sculpture and banner
to be displayed in her department for her achievement.
