Parrish Healthcare Honors Extraordinary Nurse Staci Fleming Quarterly DAISY Award® Honoree and Nominees Celebrated

TITUSVILLE, FLA. (September 23, 2025)—Parrish Healthcare is proud to announce Staci Fleming, RN, as this quarter’s DAISY Award® for Extraordinary Nurses Honoree. Fleming was nominated by a grateful patient whose heartfelt submission highlighted her exceptional skill, compassion and unwavering commitment to patient safety. Fleming is a nurse within Parrish Healthcare’s Infusion Center, located at 490 N. Washington Avenue, Titusville, FL.

“As a young person dealing with chronic illness and a whirlwind of unknowns, I couldn’t have asked for better care than what was provided to me by Staci,” the patient shared. “Without her tenacity, persistence and knowledge, I wouldn’t be on the road to recovery I am now.
