Title: CEO
What compelled you to become a health care business owner?
I got into this business because I had a disabled son who died last year from cerebral palsy. When you have a sick child you have to try and find programs that are available for them and I had a very hard time trying to find the correct information to help the situation run smoothly for my family. If you don’t know the best care for your child, you may not get the most hours, the best nurses and you can forget extensive physical therapy treatments. Wanting to know more about the industry to get better support for my son got me involved and interested in creating a company that could help families going through similar situations to ours. I created Total Staffing from the ground up working directly for agencies looking for home placement nurses and the company has continued to grow from there.
Do you believe that health care has gotten better for families?
With the latest changes going on in the medical care industry I think it has. I actually like the Obamacare program! I have seen both sides of the home health care industry as a parent fighting for my son and as a business owner. Small businesses and major companies have made a lot of money for a long time doing these jobs and when things were wonderful the money was flowing but a lot of people got rich and a lot of people dropped the ball. These new changes with medicare and Obamacare helps to keep us honest by setting rules and regulations that are much needed in this profession.
What’s next for Total Staffing?
Right now I am working with R-Elite International organic skin and hair care line. From a medical standpoint, I chose to get involved with this project to educate my clients on better products but when my nurses began using the products on their patients, we received a lot of great feedback. There are so many harmful ingredients in everyday products like shampoos, tooth paste and soaps that should not be used by people dealing with health problems and major illnesses. If we can start living healthier and using healthier products, we can eliminate a lot of the problems that we are facing.
