Whitehall, W.Va. (WBOY) — Marion Neighborhood Hospital nurses have received Mon Health’s biennial Outstanding Nurses Award.
RN Anne Wallace was recently honored with the DAISY Award for Nursing Excellence, according to a Mon Health news release issued Monday. Wallace has been with Marion Neighborhood Hospital since it opened in 2021 and works in the emergency department.
A family member of one of Anne’s patients wrote in a nomination letter:
“This is the best we’ve ever had; my son was cold, sick and scared at two. She comforted him, gave him coloring books, stickers and crayons. She made him feel better.”
