CAREGIVER OF THE MONTH- DECEMBER 2017

March 1, 2018

Congratulations to Rosario! Senior Homecare By Angels is pleased to announce that Rosario Reyes is our Caregiver of the Month. Rosario is outstanding with her work performance. She is competent, compassionate, and committed to provide consistency and continuity of care. Caring for seniors is her ultimate passion as it drives her innermost desire to help the elderly. She advocates for her clients to achieve the goals, promotes health and wellness, and empathizes their needs. She believes that it is important for her to care and treat our clients as a whole person- mind, body, and soul. It is a holistic approach, and she did a great job on delivering this concept.

When it comes to flexibility, Rosario does not mind taking more shifts and covering another schedule if we asked her to pick up some shifts. She likes to work and does not complain if we needed her to relieve another schedule. She is diligent, follows instructions, and communicates back in our office for client’s updates and schedule changes.

Rosario has been working with Senior Homecare By Angels since December 2016. She studied Personal Support Worker and just completed her Physiotherapist Assistant. She was a Registered Nurse back in her homeland, and had been with the nursing profession for 15 years. She believed in the power of knowledge. When she was working as a Senior Care Assistant in United Kingdom for 2 years in a nursing home, it gave her a motivation to perform better by learning to be more attentive and responsible so she could provide a better quality of care to her residents. She felt her life had resulted a great and promising opportunity when she moved here in Canada for good. Rosario likes to unwind by relaxation, treat herself with good and healthy food, tidy up her room and organize her things, and plan ahead for the next day.

We are so blessed to have Rosario on our team and proud of her achievements. Thank you, Rosario!

letty silvas

CAREGIVER OF THE MONTH- NOVEMBER 2017

March 1, 2018

Senior Homecare By Angels is proud to announce Letty Silva as our recipient, Caregiver of the Month. Letty was known for her client’s advocacy, flexibility, and hard work. Once she accepted to take up a case, she studied the care plan, followed it, and delivered the best care that she could provide to ensure our client’s needs were met and fulfilled. If there was anything that needed to be added on the care plan, she would make suggestions; and if noticed there were some conflicts to the best interests of the client, she would report in our office.

We can always count on Letty when it comes to any open shifts. When we needed someone to relieve a shift, she was cooperative and gladly accepted any changes even if it would affect her schedule. She worked really hard and tried her best to complete the tasks for the client. What she enjoyed the most on her job was that knowing that she had given her best to care for our clients, really satisfied her especially when our clients’ health improved and the quality of life changed for better. She was working with another client who had some mobility issues and couldn’t walk from her bed to the washroom when Letty first started on the case. After three months and with Letty’s support, the client was able to walk from her house to her neighbour’s house for 10 minutes walk with a help of a walker. That was amazing!

Letty has been with Senior Homecare By Angels since August 2016 and currently working full time shifts for our client in a homecare setting. She is a Personal Support Worker certified and had experienced with cases of Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. Letty enjoys spending time with her clients doing some exercises, playing games and puzzles.

Congratulations Letty and thank you for all amazing things that you did! Great job!

marilou sufos

CAREGIVER OF THE MONTH- MARCH 2017

April 11, 2017

Senior Homecare By Angels is very pleased to announce that Marilou Sufso is March’s recipient of the Caregiver of the Month award. Her heart and desire is to take care of the elderly and she’s very passionate about what she does. She considers her clients’ emotions when providing care and she genuinely concerns for their happiness and well-being. She treats them like her own family. As a caregiver, one can face many different challenges, and Marilou understands how to deal with the clients, their behaviour and situations, and their families, especially when dealing with someone who has Dementia.

Marilou can identify any situation that can cause setbacks. Her resiliency and her ability to maintain control of any situation is admirable. She’s very flexible, understanding and adaptable to any changes. During those times when our office needed someone to cover the shifts for one of our clients, Marilou was willing to work day and/or night shifts without hesitation. She understood that the family would prefer to have the same caregiver to work for their parents, rather than assigning a brand new caregiver who had never previously worked for the parents. The family believed on the concept of continuity of care, and Marilou prioritized our clients to ensure that she could provide the level of care with dedication and compassion.

Marilou has been with Senior Homecare By Angels since 2010 working part-time on weekends as a live-in caregiver with a previous client that was transferred to a nursing home. She worked full time shifts as a live out caregiver in 2015, while studying to be a Personal Support Worker. She was a caregiver in Israel for less than four years and was a Registered Nurse back in her country. She has experience working with Dementia, Alzheimer’s, and Cancer. Marilou likes to spend time with her family during her spare time and recharges herself by relaxing and getting some rest so that she can be renewed the next day.

We are so blessed to have Marilou and couldn’t be more proud of her accomplishments. She is such a hard-working person and very caring. She is such a gem that is so precious and one of a kind! Congratulations Marilou!
