    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.

    I work with my heart. I care for people as if they were my own mother and father. I started this work because I knew I would like it. I am very proud that the 97 year old man I cared for became more happy and healthy with my cooking, my smiling and my joking. He and his family were so happy with me. Another woman only sat in her chair and said "I want to go to bed" all the time, before I came. A week after staying with her, she was going out in her wheelchair, eating at the table, and she and her family were so much more happy. It makes me happy to help people have a better life, especially elderly people, who mostly need love.
