Suzanne Martinez
February 2016

It is rare to know your calling as a child, but Suzanne Martinez was one of the lucky ones. From a young age, Suzanne knew that not only did she want to help people but that she had a special passion for the elderly. In the small, close-knit community of Mebane, NC, Suzanne loved assisting the elders in her church, whether that was helping to carry items or being a listening ear. It was due to that caring nature that her grandfather affectionately named her “Little Nurse.”
After her early years in a small town, Suzanne moved to Raleigh, NC. She spent a few years working in the theater where she was quickly promoted to an assistant manager. Soon, the long hours and nights away from her family began to make her reconsider getting back to her passion for being the “Little Nurse.” Suzanne decided to go back to school to pursue her true love of working with geriatrics and became a Certified Nursing Assistant. Suzanne has now been a CNA for 6 years and knows that she has truly found where she will continue until she retires.
Suzanne and her husband reside in Mebane, NC with their 4 boys ranging in ages from 5-17 years old. They love playing games, putt-putt, or just hanging around the house watching television. Suzanne says, every day is a blessing to wake up, spend time with her family and do what she loves.

Pamela Moore

Pamela Moore
September 2015

Within the foundation of all successful organizations there can be found several qualities that ensure, if not guarantee, its longevity; Dependability, a willingness to adapt, unquestioned dedication, and compassion. Each of these qualities, along with many others, have been used to describe our September Caregiver of the Month. Pamela
Moore was born in the Bronx, New York. Her career in the healthcare began 22 years ago. Her passion for helping those in need began following an automobile accident that paralyzed her brother. Pamela used her family’s lack of knowledge of healthcare policy and procedures, as motivation to pursue her calling as a provider of quality care for all of those in need.
Pamela Moore is a mother of five and grandmother to four grandchildren, who she proudly admits to spending the majority of her free time and money with. Her mini-chihuahua ‘Rocky’ is another of Pamela’s joys. When Pamela, is not providing excellent care to Nurse Care clients, she can often be found reading books by James Patterson or watching two of her favorite sports teams, the Dallas Cowboys and the New York Mets. If she could pass along only one gem to the world she would advise everyone to: “Be respectful of other people and their time, and be mindful of your elders.”
The Nurse Care family is only as great as each of its members and Pamela Moore is a true testament to greatness of Nurse Care and our dedication to the service of the community. This recognition may only shine the spotlight on her deeds for the moment, but her constant commitment to the service of others allows her to shine at all times.

That decision led Casey to Nurse Care of North Carolina in February of 2015 when he became a live-in caregiver. Casey quickly became the primary caregiverfor his client and he enjoys providing the one-on-one, personalized attention that is possible in home care. Dr. H., one of Casey’s clients, describes him as ‘a wonderful guy and a great nurse assistant who will do anything for you.’
Casey’s future plans include nursing school and eventually becoming a Nurse Practitioner. For now his down time is spent following Mountaineer football and preparing to buy his first home in Clayton, where he will be closer to work, friends and educational opportunities.

At Nurse Care of North Carolina, we believe it is important to recognize our caregivers for their remarkable compassion, dedication and diligence towards the respected individuals for whom they provide care. This month, our thanks goes to Janelle Chambliss!

She graduated from Elizabeth City State University with a bachelor’s degree in Biology and is pursuing an associate’s degree in Nursing at Durham Tech starting in August. Janelle has a true passion for home care as it “makes her feel great knowing that she has contributed to helping someone get healthier and/or rehabilitate.”

At Nurse Care of North Carolina, we believe it is important to recognize our caregivers for their compassion, dedication and diligence. This month, we are shining the spotlight on Penny Clark!
Originally hailing from Dover, Delaware, Penny has been providing personal care services since 2009 and joined Nurse Care in October 2014. Penny has dedicated herself to helping others — the tragic loss family member inspired her to obtain her CNA and focus time on providing a support system for those in need. She is particularly excited about working with seniors and feels compelled to “give back the love and respect they have given to others.” Time and time again, Penny has consistently taken the initiative to treat her client as family and be proactive with care needs.
In her spare time, Penny is an avid Duke Blue Devils fan. She is also eager to further her education in healthcare. Her qualities are a great example of what Nurse Care seeks from its caregivers and we are excited to have her as a member of our team for years to come!

He works tirelessly Monday through Friday with his ongoing client. Recently, after a fall and a trip to the hospital, it was necessary to increase his client’s hours of care. Without hesitation, Tim stepped-up, not only volunteering to work extra hours, but also helping to coordinate with the client’s other regular caregiver to ensure consistency and continuity of care. Tim is empathetic, friendly and has an unparalleled work ethic. We are honored to have him as a member of the Nurse Care family.

Karen George, LPN is Nurse Care’s Caregiver of the Month for February 2015. Recently, I had the chance to get coffee with Karen and learn more about why she became a LPN. As Karen was doing mission work overseas, she was asked to work in a hospital and received on-the-job training. Once returning to the US, Karen decided she loved taking care of others so much that she wanted to pursue her degree in Practical Nursing. Since working with Karen, she has made every effort to staff what I ask of her. Karen has been a very reliable employee that I do not hesitate to call on. She is very versatile and willing to apply herself in a variety of settings. Karen is a great communicator and gets back to me right away. Karen recently stayed behind to clean a client’s house after the client and their parent needed to go to the emergency room. Karen could tell the parent was stressed and needed some house cleaning help. This is a great example of Karen’s character. I appreciate Karen and believe she is a great member of our Nurse Care team.
