We’re so proud of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Nurse Elle Huska, RN. She received The DAISY Foundation Award for Extraordinary Nurses! We’re grateful to have her on our team.
She was nominated by St. Luke’s Nephrologist Dr. Abdurraman Hamadah, who has worked with her for several years.
“Nursing is one of the most demanding and rewarding professions in healthcare,” he said. “It requires a unique combination of skills, knowledge and personal attributes to provide quality care to patients. Elle, being an outstanding nurse, has these traits that make her a valuable member of the healthcare team.”
Some of the attributes Dr. Hamadah appreciates most about Elle are her compassion, excellent communication skills, meticulous attention to detail, patience, strong work ethic and unfailingly positive attitude.
Thank you, Elle, for exemplifying what it means to be a nurse at St. Luke’s 💙
