Please join us in congratulating Hannah Szippl, RN, on receiving a DAISY Award!

Hannah works at Blanchard Valley Hospital (BVH) in labor & delivery. A patient nominated her after she fostered a positive birth experience. The nominator was impressed by Hannah’s patience and gentle, comforting spirit while she and her husband were sleep-deprived and overwhelmed after the birth of their first child. “Her genuine advice, attention, and care will forever leave an impact on my heart,” wrote the nominator.

When she delivered her second child two years later at BVH, the nominator was overjoyed to see Hannah again. “Seeing her was like a warm hug, and I ask myself all the time how lucky I am to have had her again to care for me.”

Thank you, Hannah, for your dedication to providing compassionate care. We are proud to have you as part of #TeamBVHS.
