The Daisy Foundation And Health Carousel Announce International Partnership
T
he DAISY Foundation and Health Carousel announced their international advocacy partnership which will increase global support for the DAISY Foundation's mission honoring nurses.
The DAISY Foundation is thrilled to welcome its first international advocate, Health Carousel, who will assist the foundation in expanding the global reach of DAISY recognition for nurses. To start, Health Carousel will be supporting the Uganda Nurses and Midwives Union who will present the first 6 of 24 annual DAISY Awards to compassionate nurses in front of the country's President today. Expansion of the international advocacy partnership is underway allowing the DAISY program to honor nurses in additional countries, hospitals and schools of nursing worldwide. Said Bonnie Barnes, FAAN, Co-founder and CEO of The DAISY Foundation, We have been looking for the right partner to support DAISY's global growth in under-developed countries whose leaders see the value of meaningful recognition for nurses but do not have the means for the program. In Health Carousel, we have the right partner, doing this for the right reasons. With the addition of nurses in Uganda thanks to the Uganda Nurses and Midwives Union, DAISY is now honoring nurses in 29 countries.
Bill DeVille, CEO and Co-Founder of Health Carousel stated, We are delighted to be able to help the country of Uganda honor their compassionate nurses through sponsorship of DAISY awards. It has never been so evident as during these uncertain times of COVID-19, that successful organizations such as Health Carousel have a social responsibility that heightens as they grow. Internally we like to say we do well by doing good. Sponsoring DAISY Foundation awards for the Uganda Nurses and Midwives Union is one example of this concept put into practice and aligns with our broader Light the Way initiative which supports global healthcare professionals in many ways, concluded Mr. DeVille.
Earl Dalton, Chief Nursing Officer of Health Carousel was also on hand to comment. We are extremely proud to expand our relationship with The DAISY Foundation and in supporting DAISY Awards for the compassionate Ugandan nurses honored today. Dalton added that Uganda is the first of several International Advocacy programs being launched with The DAISY Foundation over the coming months.
