Jasmine is a great nurse. She brings a positive and caring energy to the unit every day. Her knowledge and expertise as a nurse give her Veterans and their families much confidence and she makes them feel at home. It is easy to see the VA's ICARE Values - Integrity, Commitment, Advocacy, Respect, and Excellence in the way that Jasmine interacts with co-workers and families, and in the way she cares for the Veterans. Jasmine has been called an "awesome team player," by one of her fellow nursing assistants, and she has also been recognized and complimented by nurses, physicians, and family members, too. Some of the wonderful things that people have shared about Jasmine are:
It never fails if I as a nurses aid need any kind of help with patient care Jasmine will bend over backward to help me. She is always willing to help. She shows how committed she is to her job. She is the prime example of an excellent nurse.

Jasmine is an awesome nurse. She is very caring to staff and to Veterans. She has been playing 50's and 60's music to entertain patients on the unit. She respects others' wishes and is very supportive of staff. Recently, when a Veteran needed bloodwork and initially refused the blood draw, Jasmine went to the patient's bedside, talked to him, and convinced him the blood work was necessary. She held his hands and the blood work was done. That is commitment and dedication. She is excellent!

Jasmine is the best ever. She treats my father amazingly! I cannot thank her enough for how well she treats him. Not only do I see her with my dad but others as well. From what I can see she gives 110% to each and every Veteran.
