Surrounded by family and friends, ten graduates of the Holyoke's Nurse Aide Program received certificates in a ceremony held on December 12, 2008.

Western Massachusetts Regional Manager Desiree Leclair; Instructor Maryellen Ciocca, R.N.; and Job Developer Judie Siegel offered congratulations.

Student Megan Baker spoke for the class saying, "At times it seemed as though it wasn't possible. But as I look around the room I see the hard days weren't so hard and the long days seem to have gone by too fast."

As part of their training, students worked at Wingate Healthcare in West Springfield. Also awarded were Home Health Aide and Alzheimer's certificates.
