Outstanding Nurse Award Given for National Nurses Week

Honolulu (April 29, 2013) -- In honor of National Nurses Week in May, Attention Plus Care will pay tribute to the nurses company-wide for the profound difference they make in their clients' lives. Additionally, the company will recognize Registered Nurse Ivani Phillips with the "Outstanding Nurse" award. Mrs. Phillips, RN was selected because of her perfect attendance, company loyalty, exceptional performance evaluations, and compassionate care with her clients.

"When Ivani first started caring for my daughter, I can tell she loved her job and that was when I knew she was going to give 110%, and it showed," said Kathy Carranza, mother of a three-year-old client of Attention Plus Care. "Ivani is very giving to my daughter, and she treats her like she is her own child. Ivani reads her a book during every shift, and engages with my daughter in educational activities," said Carranza.

Attention Plus Care recognizes the many challenges nurses may encounter while caring for a client in their home. While nurses provide care for different licensed care needs, some of their clients may include medically fragile children, disabled adults, or end-of-life care. Nurses are on the front lines of client care and are always ready to aid in safety, support, advocacy, and provide comfort to clients and their family members.

"Everyday our nurses devote their lives to provide care and support for their clients and families. They put so much of their heart and soul into each and every client. At Attention Plus Care, we commend our outstanding nurses for their compassion, professionalism, dedication, and healing touch," said Eileen Phillips, RN, (no relation to Ivani Phillips) Client Service Director of Attention Plus Care.

Attention Plus Care has been serving the community for 30 years, and is a licensed home health care agency with the state Department of Health. The company has earned the Gold Seal of Approval from the nationally recognized Joint Commission, and has maintained accreditation for 22 years.

"We are very proud of Ivani and having her as part of our team. Knowing that we have caregivers like her is especially encouraging as more and more families seek licensed nursing care in their homes," said Carol Samples, RN, President and CEO of Attention Plus Care. The American Nurses Association (ANA) supports and encourages National Nurses Week recognition programs throughout the state of Hawaii. From health care in homes, hospitals and long-term care facilities to the halls of research institutions, state legislatures, and Congress, the depth and breadth of the nursing profession is meeting the expanding health care needs of American society.
