Meet Our Team

Nora is most passionate about high quality geriatrics care; always aiming to improve health, independence, and quality of life to the seniors in our community. Nora started in the medical field as a Nurse’s Aide at the age of 16 and graduated from nursing school in 1983! For the first 20 years of her career, Nora focused on the high-tech world of ICU and dialysis. She then specialized in Home Health and Hospice Care for the past 20 years both in management and direct patient care roles. She trains and supports our team of professional CAREGivers to provide excellent care, make sure they have the resources they need to be successful and ensure that our clients are safe at home with all their needs met so they can age in place.

​In August 2015, Sharon started working as a Companion with Home Instead and then was promoted to a Certified Home Health Aide in October 2015. During that time, she was awarded CAREGiver of the Month multiple times for her outstanding performance in home care. In July 2017, Sharon was promoted to Human Resources Coordinator. Her CAREGiver experience combined with her 33-year military career helps her enjoy a position managing the complete CAREGiver Experience from recruiting to retention. Her primary responsibility is to hire compassionate and caring CAREGivers that serve our seniors with integrity. She performs in-depth screening and ensures a robust training program that results in care team members with the perfect heart to work with seniors. Sharon also manages the Home Instead on-going training programs, both in-house and on-line.

Samantha Ramirez is a vibrant healthcare coordinator at Home Instead and a proud mom of two wonderful girls. Her introduction to the healthcare industry began with a personal connection to the challenges faced by loved ones with serious illnesses and the complexities of the aging mind. This experience ignited Samantha's passion for making a difference in people's lives, particularly in the elderly community. With a compassionate heart, Samantha is dedicated to helping individuals on a personal and valuable level, providing comfort and security even in the most uncomfortable situations. As an advocate for a community that may have limited support, she takes her role seriously, ensuring each person receives the utmost respect and the highest quality of care.

"I look forward to extending my heart and hand to many more individuals to continue impacting families with the most positive and encouraging encounters on their journey."

She has been a professional CareGiver with Home Instead since 2020 and has been awarded numerous awards including CareGiver of the Year! She leads the way in delivering compassionate and empathetic care to our elderly clients. 

"My passion is to show and treat each one of my clients with the love and support as I would want a family member of my own to be treated, and that’s how I treat them, like family. Working for Home Instead has been a blessing, the beautiful people I have come in contact with on this life’s journey have made me a better person. Not only am I caring for them but they are unknowingly making a loving impact on me and I’m truly grateful. My goal as a lead caregiver is to leave clients with a happy positive feeling of love that every one of them deserves."
