Granville Health System Announces 2024 3rd Quarter DAISY Award® Honoree

OXFORD, NC, November 11, 2024 – Granville Health System has announced its third quarter winner of the DAISY award. Megan Kelley, RN was awarded The DAISY Award® on November 6, 2024. Megan, a nurse in our Women’s Services department, was nominated for the DAISY Award by a fellow nurse.

Megan took care of a young first-time mother as she was being scheduled for an induction. The patient was very nervous about an induction as she had a birth plan in place. Megan was comforting, patient, and reassuring during the induction process. Megan remained at her side until the sweet baby boy was welcomed into this world. Megan went above and beyond to care for this patient while trying to honor her birth plan wishes. With Megan’s assistance she was able to achieve her goal of a vaginal delivery without an epidural, and she was also able to delay cord clamping and do initial skin to skin with her sweet baby. Megan did an outstanding job caring for this patient. The patient shared how grateful she was to have Megan and the rest of the team for her delivery. She stated, “I am so glad we chose Granville L&D. If we have more children in the future, I will definitely be back and I hope Megan will be there. Thank you to all of my care team.”

The Award is part of The DAISY Foundation’s mission to recognize nurses for the extraordinary, compassionate care they provide patients and families every day. Granville Health System is among many healthcare organizations participating in The DAISY Award program.

“It is my honor to present this well-deserved DAISY Award to Megan,” said Ann Marie Holtzman-Wheeler, Chief Nursing Officer, Granville Health System. “Her unwavering dedication to providing compassionate nursing care shines brightly, and we deeply appreciate her tireless efforts and commitment to the communities we serve, and the patients entrusted to our care.”
