The new art display in our Behavioral Health outpatient waiting area, "Animal Helpers and Healers” is an exhibit of art honoring animals who have helped our lives and mental health. The pieces are submitted by staff and patients and feature stories of animals and how they impact our lives. One of the prominent shadowbox creations focuses on Katie, who was in active duty in the military, and her service dog Macho. Click the link below to read their full story. And feel free to stop by our Behavioral Health building to see the rest of the stories up close. This installation will be on display until the end of January.

Tamarack Health is proud to announce the latest recipient of the DAISY Award, Cassie Little, Preoperative RN.

“Cassie was welcoming from the first moment we were assigned to her care. You felt comforted by her words and actions," said the award nominator. "She gave us confidence that the team had the ability to do the procedure by her knowledgeable responses to all our inquiries. She was a calming aide to a day which for me was filled with apprehension and fears. I truly appreciated her professionalism and care.”

The DAISY Award is an international program to honor the extraordinary clinical skill and compassionate care given by our nurses every day. Each DAISY Award Honoree is recognized at a public ceremony and receives a certificate, a DAISY Award pin, and a hand-carved stone sculpture called "A Healer's Touch." DAISY nurses also receive reduced tuition to further their education and direct reimbursements for medical mission trips.

If you would like to submit a nomination, fill out the online form and share your story of how a Tamarack Health nurse made a difference you will never forget.
