The DAISY Award was established by the DAISY Foundation in memory of J. Patrick Barnes who died at 33 of an auto-immune disease. His family was awestruck by the clinical skills, caring and
compassion of the nurses who cared for him. They created this national award to honor his memory and thank nurses everywhere. The DAISY Award is presented bimonthly to one nurse in the
Altoona VA Medical Center and Outpatient Clinics who is nominated by a Veteran, family member, employee or volunteer witnessing extraordinary inpatient or outpatient care. Nomination forms
can be found throughout Altoona’s Main Campus and Outpatient Clinics in DuBois, State College, Huntingdon, Johnstown, and Indiana, or use the form below.
