Hometown Hero of the Week: Jessica Latham, March 22nd, 2023

Hometown Hero of the Week: Jessica Latham, March 22nd, 2023

Our QDR Hometown Hero of the week is Jessica Latham, a nurse at WakeMed Hospital.

Jessica was nominated by Alyssa Fenty who says, “Jessica has been in the nursing field for over 20+ years at WakeMed Raleigh. She has worked 40+ hours a week since COVID began to help keep up with the demand. She is a mom of 3 amazing kids who treasure her, a sister, a daughter, a wife, a friend to many. She gives all she has to her patients and colleagues. She recently received WakeMed’s Pyramid Award, the top award within WakeMed.” 

Thank you, Jessica, for your service! As a token of our appreciation, we’re sending you a gift card to Smithfield’s Chicken ‘N Bar-B-Q to thank you for all you do!
