CCH nurse awarded for extraordinary work

News release:
(COLUMBUS, Neb.) – The DAISY Award is an international program that rewards and celebrates the extraordinary clinical skill and compassionate care given by nurses. Columbus Community Hospital is a DAISY Award Partner and it recognizes one of its nurses with this special honor each quarter.
This quarter’s winner is Mary Romshek, RN, BSN, in the post-anesthesia care unit and house supervisor in the acute care unit. She was honored with an award presentation on Thursday, September 3.
Romshek was nominated by Joanna Jarecke, who nominated her based on the care she gave a patient several years ago. In her nomination letter, Jarecke said she was walking by a wall of photos with a family member of a patient who recognized the photo of Romshek. The family member remembered Romshek providing exceptional care to his father 10 years ago when he was in the ICU. “I feel Mary is deserving of this award as she is a wonderful, caring nurse. And obviously after 10 years, still made an impact on this family,” Jarecke wrote.
Patients, visitors, nurses, physicians and staff can nominate a deserving nurse by filling out the “Nurse Nomination Form,” on this page of the CCH website: https://www.columbushosp.org/for_patients_visitors/nominate_a_nurse.aspx. Nominations that are received after the winner is chosen for that quarter will go toward the next DAISY Award.
