The American Academy of Ambulatory Care Nursing has joined an alliance of nursing groups that support The DAISY Foundation, an organization that gives grants and awards to outstanding nurses.
The DAISY Foundation was created in 1999 to thank nurses for their compassionate patient care by the family of Patrick Barnes, a 33 year-old man, who died from the auto-immune disease idiopathic thrombocytopenia. The DAISY acronym signifies Diseases Attacking the Immune System.
