Through the DAISY Nurse Educator Award, we honor the extraordinary work nurse educators do in improving practice and advancing patient care through teaching, precepting, and mentoring. Nurse educators can be nominated by anyone in the organization - patients, family members, other nurses, physicians, other clinicians and staff - anyone who experiences or observes the extraordinary, compassionate work of a nurse educator.

This form is specifically for nominating nurse educators currently employed by Jersey City Medical Center.

If you would like to nominate a nurse that is not an educator, please submit your nomination using the DAISY Award Nomination Form.

If the employee you would like to nominate is a non-nursing healthcare staff member, please submit your nomination using the BEE Award Nomination Form.
