Roberta Enger, L.P.N. of St. Anthony Regional Hospital was presented with the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses at a reception with her family and co-workers this week.
The award is part of the DAISY Foundation’s program to recognize the super-human efforts nurses perform daily.
A portion of Roberta’s nomination submission read: “Every time we visited my father in the St. Anthony Nursing Home, Roberta greeted us with a big smile, good humor and a nice update on his condition. My father never failed to speak highly of Roberta and enjoyed their friendship immensely. If Dad were here today, he would write this nomination for Roberta.
Later on, I ran into Roberta at the St. Anthony Clinic in Carroll, and she was the same vital, caring person in a different setting. Roberta has been a profound experience in the life of my father and entire family. St. Anthony is blessed to have her and others like her. They truly look to the cross for inspiration that marks their compassionate care.”
Roberta began her career at St. Anthony in 2010 working in the nursing home and then surgery department. Roberta now is the primary nurse for urology and neurology. Roberta and her soon-to-be husband Bob Malloy reside in Westside. Roberta’s son Scot and his wife, Jess have three children. With Roberta and Bob’s upcoming wedding, she will be extending her family by three more adult children and grandchildren!
