Welcome! Now, more than ever, a trained workforce is needed in health care industry. Not only are we living longer, but also, we are now threatened by outside forces that demand our healthcare system be revamped. How do we get the public involved in the needs of the healthcare industry? This is the major question of the day. There is a need for certified nursing assistants throughout the society. This need exists in every fabric of our society. Understanding the needs of the healthcare industry was seen as a major opportunity for the JMM Proprietary Healthcare Institute for the creation of jobs/careers.

The JMM Proprietary Healthcare Institute is the answer for Mississippi in the effort to bridge the nursing shortage gap. We are also the answer for providing individuals with a vocation that can be used for life as well as seek upward mobility. Upon successful completion of the training program, participants are eligible to take the Mississippi State Board Examination to become Certified Nursing Assistant.

The JMM Proprietary Healthcare Institute not only focuses on job training skills, but also in developing and maintaining strong work ethics. Our program is an innovative approach to addressing a particular health care need that is community driven and trainee oriented. We show our students the “ropes” and then we teach and allow them to “jump the ropes”.

The Jackson Medical Mall Proprietary HealthCare Institute is a partnership that enhances health care through education, employment, and empowerment of communities.
