Melissa Ames, R.N., earned Broward Health Imperial Point’s DAISY award for going above and beyond the call of duty. While sipping coffee with a friend at Starbucks, she happened to witness a bicyclist collide with a semi-truck. Melissa, and her friend who is a paramedic, immediately rushed over to the bicyclist who suffered a serious head injury and immediately provided life-saving CPR until the ambulance arrived. Even though she was on her day off, Melissa did not miss a beat. Thank you Melissa for exemplifying what it means to be a nurse.
