Hi my name is Jazzmere and I've been a certified nurse assistant for 8 plus years. I got into the field because I like helping people and also I have family members in the nursing field. I do have a personal connection with being a caregiver, I took care of my grandfather who was battling Parkinson's disease. I took care of him in his final days here on earth and made him as comfortable as possible. I miss him very much. Besides being a caregiver, I enjoy spending time with my family and especially my 5 year old son. He is the most important person to me. If I'm not spending time with family I'm in school part time pursuing my nursing degree.

My name is Sharmaine Williams, I have been certified in the healthcare field for more than ten years. I choose to be nursing assistant because even as a small girl I always loved assisting/helping others. I began in the field of nursing because of my daughter's health issues that led me to an abundance of training to adequately care for her on a daily basis. I know that families, just like myself looks for compassion, empathy, qualified, and competent care. I believe in the quality and sufficiency of my work and I know that my quality of care is one of my best achievements in my career choice of providing great healthcare to ones who are looking for just a little help/compassion & companionship.
