Griffin Hospital in Derby honors nurse with DAISY Award

Tammy Borkowski

DERBY – Griffin Health recently honored Tammy Borkowski, BSN, RN, CMSRN of Oxford with The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses.


The award is part of the DAISY Foundation's mission to recognize the extraordinary, compassionate care nurses provide patients and families every day. 

Winners can be nominated by patients, patients’ family or friends, or fellow caregivers for their exemplary care.

Borkowski, a nurse for Griffin Hospital’s Critical Care Unit, was nominated by a fellow caregiver for her skill in advocating for and connecting with her patients.

“Tammy shows exceptional compassion and dedication for her patients, their loved ones and her team,” the nomination for Borkowski stated. “She is always stepping up and leading by example to ensure her patients are safe and well taken care of clinically - whether or not she’s in change that shift - and sometimes making her own assignments more difficult in order to help out others.” 

Information about the DAISY Award is included in Griffin Health patient information packets and nomination forms are available online and at all Griffin Health locations. 

The award recipients are chosen by a committee at Griffin and the award is presented throughout the year.

About The DAISY Foundation

The DAISY Foundation is a not-for-profit organization, established in memory of J. Patrick Barnes, by members of his family. 

Patrick died at the age of 33 in late 1999 from complications of Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP), a little known but not uncommon auto-immune disease. 

DAISY is an acronym for Diseases Attacking the Immune System. 

The care Patrick and his family received from nurses while he was ill inspired this unique means of thanking nurses for making a profound difference in the lives of their patients and patient families.
