NEW ULM — New Ulm Medical Center Nurse Practioner Sara Kanuch recently received the DAISY Award for extraordinary nurses.
The first NUMC recipient of the biannual award, she was nominated by a patient.
Excerpts from the patient included “Sara was always caring, compassionate and quite simply wonderful. She never made me feel like I was taking too much of her time at any appointment. She always listened to concerns and was on top of any new issues. I would shudder to think how I might have made it through this journey without ‘my Sara.’
“She is an absolute gem. I can’t say enough about how knowledgeable she is. When I had a question she didn’t have an answer for she never just said ‘I can’t answer that, I don’t know.’ Instead she said, ‘I don’t know, but I’ll find out and get back to you
