Riley Nursing Professional Practice Model At the heart of the Riley Nursing Professional Practice Model is what matters most to Riley nurses—the patient. Surrounding individualized patient care delivery are the generative relationships established between the patient, family, community, team and self (nurse). Generative relationships are cultivated from the attributes of IU Health nurses. IU Health nurses exemplify clinical expertise, embrace learning, have a spirit of inquiry, are professionally engaged and foster relationships. Surrounded by united professional governance, nurses can exercise the advocacy, autonomy, accountability and authority of professional nursing practice to deliver Individualized patient care.
DAISY Award recipients The DAISY Award is a recognition program to celebrate and recognize nurses by collecting nominations from patients, families and co-workers. The program was started by the family of Patrick Barnes, who experienced incredible kindness and compassion from the nurses while Patrick was hospitalized. The family decided to honor Patrick by establishing the DAISY (diseases attacking the immune system) Foundation. The DAISY Award has been adopted by thousands of healthcare organizations and schools of nursing around the world. At Riley Children’s, our Nursing Excellence Council (NEC) receives approximately 60 – 90 DAISY nominations a month. Each nominee receives a special DAISY pin. The nominations are blinded and the NEC scores each nomination based on set criteria. The nominee who receives the highest score gets a recognition ceremony on their unit complete with daisies, healer’s touch sculpture, a certificate, DAISY winner pin and cinnamon rolls.
