Saint Michael’s Medical Center Veteran Nurse Practitioner Receives Daisy Award

A veteran nurse practitioner at Saint Michael’s Medical Center was honored with the DAISY Foundation's Daisy Award, which honors the super-human work nurses do for patients and families every day.

Sheila O’Connor of East Hannover has worked as a nurse practitioner at Saint Michael’s for the last nine years in the cath lab and the stress lab, was recognized for the way she handles the unpredictability of working as a cardiac clinician.

“Dealing with varying physician preferences, fluctuating volume and ever-changing acuity can be extremely stressful.

She individualizes her approach to patients to ensure that they feel safe, comfortable and receive exemplary clinical care.”

O’Connor, who has been a nurse for 17 years, also works at Saint Michael’s sister hospital, Saint Clare’s in Dover, both of which are owned by Prime Healthcare.

O’Connor earned her nurse practitioner’s degree from University of Medicine and Dentistry (UMDNJ) in Newark, which has since been renamed Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences.
