BRENTWOOD, Tenn. - PennZone -- IntellaTriage, the nation's leading provider of nurse-first hospice and home health triage solutions, proudly announces Kaylie Peters, RN, as the 2023 Nurse of the Year. Chosen by the CEO from previous Employee of the Month recipients in collaboration with the IntellaTriage leadership team, this honor is bestowed at the beginning of each year upon the nurse who best exemplified the values and mission of IntellaTriage throughout the previous year. This prestigious accolade also considers year-long metrics such as quality of care, clinical skill, and client scope. The achievement was awarded internally earlier this year and is now being announced publicly. In addition to this honor, Kaylie received a 4-day trip for two to the location of her choice, including airfare, hotel accommodations, and activities. Kaylie selected Marco Island, Florida, as her destination and traveled with her husband and their nine-month-old child.

Throughout the year, IntellaTriage leadership recognizes outstanding nurse performance by selecting an Employee of the Month. Nurses honored as Employee of the Month become eligible for the Nurse of the Year award. Kaylie, having been named Nurse of the Year in January 2024, embarked on her well-deserved trip to Marco Island in late May. She and her family enjoyed various activities, including mini golf in a tropical setting, visiting a unique zoo with lush landscapes, and exploring the town's lagoon teeming with tiny crabs. Highlights included a sunset dinner on a floating dock, indulging in tropical seafood and drinks, and witnessing the breathtaking sight of hundreds of white birds flying over the ocean on their last morning.
