Nominate an Extraordinary Nurse Today!

All Arkansas Nurses, including students, LPNs, RNs and APRNs, can be nominated and are eligible to become a DAISY honoree either through their direct DAISY partner organization or the Arkansas Nurses Association. 

Nurses work in all health and community care settings: nursing homes, assisted living facilities, home care agencies, hospices, schools, prisons, medical offices, public health, state facilities, medical aid units… and many more! 

With 66,000+ nurses in Arkansas, we are sure you know more than one nurse that has impacted your or your loved one’s life in an extraordinary way. Click on “nominate your nurse” in the banner below to express your gratitude with a meaningful nomination for a DAISY award.

Arkansas Nurses Association DAISY Awards Sponsorship Opportunities & Benefits

The Arkansas Nurses Association is partnering with The DAISY Foundation to show all Arkansas nurses and nursing students how much they are appreciated. Through this program, nurse leaders, co-workers, supervisors, administrators, patients, and families of patients are encouraged to nominate nurses that have shown extraordinary care to receive a DAISY Award. The Arkansas Nurses Association virtual DAISY Award kickoff event will take place on Thursday, September 1, 2022, 6:00 – 7:30 pm.

The official DAISY Awards will be presented at the Arkansas Nurses Association’s 110th Anniversary Gala on Friday, November 4 in Little Rock.

The DAISY Foundation, created to express gratitude by a family that experienced extraordinary nursing, is the leader in meaningful recognition of nurses. Today, DAISY proudly honors Nurses wherever they practice, in whatever role they serve, and throughout their careers- from nursing student through lifetime achievement.
