A Legacy of Excellence: Honoring Jennifer Holloway with the Nurse Leader DAISY Award
For over 24 years, Jennifer Holloway has been more than just a nurse at HCA HealthONE Swedish — she has been a cornerstone of the Labor and Delivery and Women’s and Children’s teams. It is with deep admiration and collective gratitude that we celebrate Jen as our latest Nurse Leader DAISY Award recipient.
Jen’s career is defined by a rare combination of clinical sharpness and profound empathy. Whether she is navigating the complexities of a high-risk delivery or providing a calm presence for patients facing challenges like substance use, depression, or anxiety, Jen ensures every individual is treated with dignity. Her peers describe her as one of the finest nurses they have ever observed, setting a standard of care that serves as a North Star for our entire organization.
Leading through every season
As a leader, Jen has navigated the inevitable shifts in healthcare with unwavering dedication. Beyond the clinical schedules and staffing logistics, Jen is the heart of her unit. She is the colleague who knows the personal stories of her team members, offering a kind word or a checking-in text exactly when it is needed most.
Her influence extends well beyond the walls of Labor and Delivery. As the co-chair of the CNC Council, Jen spends countless hours advocating for nursing workplace improvements. When Jen speaks, the room listens — not just because of her nearly quarter-century of experience, but because her voice is grounded in integrity and a tireless work ethic.
A pillar of support
For new leaders entering the HCA HealthONE Swedish family, Jen has been an indispensable mentor. Her willingness to volunteer, her wealth of institutional knowledge, and her genuine friendship have made her a vital support system for the Women’s and Children’s service line.
Jennifer Holloway doesn’t just do her job; she lives the mission of nursing every single day. We are proud to honor a leader whose impact is immeasurable and whose heart is, and always has been, in the right place.
