DAISY Awards
Stacy Gammon receives December 2025 CMH DAISY Award
Stacy Gammon, RN, received the Dec. 2025 CMH DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses. Gammon is a registered nurse in the Intensive Care Unit at Citizens Memorial Hospital.
She was nominated for the DAISY Award by a patient’s family member, who shared:
“Stacy took care of my father in the ICU. She did such a great job of taking care of all of his needs and making sure he was comfortable. Her work didn’t stop with just my dad. She took the time to explain everything happening with great patience and understanding to my mother. She laughed with us, cried with us and prayed with us, and our family felt that God made sure we had a nurse with her kindness and compassion to get through it all.”
“It felt like a family member was taking care of my dad, and I will be forever grateful for all that she did. Stacy hasn’t been a nurse long, but her compassionate spark is something that cannot be taught… She will always be a DAISY in all of our hearts.”
About the DAISY Award
DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System. The DAISY Foundation established the award in memory of J. Patrick Barnes, who died at 33 of an auto-immune disease. The international award thanks nurses everywhere.
CMH started the DAISY Award program in January 2019. A CMH or Citizens Memorial Health Care Foundation nurse receives the award each month.
