January 25, 2019 – Danville, Kentucky – Ephraim McDowell Fort Logan Hospital (EMFLH) is pleased to recognize and honor one of its nurses for her extraordinary patient care.  Stephanie Todd, RN, a nurse in the Birthing Spa at EMFLH, was one of many nurses nominated for the DAISY Award.  A resident of Mercer County, Stephanie has been caring for patients at EMFLH for more than 9 years. 

She was nominated by several coworkers and patients.  One of the patients said, “Stephanie went out of her way to spend time with me and my baby.  She got to know me and spoke with me on a personal level giving me comfort and feeling like a friend not just a patient.  She made sure I had all I needed as well as frequently checking on me.  She helped guide me in doing things with my baby which as a first time mother was very helpful and heartwarming.” 

Ephraim McDowell is proud to recognize nurses with the DAISY Award, a national program that honors the compassionate care and clinical excellence that nurses bring to their patients every day.  Nomination forms for the DAISY Award are available at various locations throughout EMFLH, Ephraim McDowell James B. Haggin Hospital and Ephraim McDowell Regional Medical Center.
