Care Professional of the Month – February 2024

We are thrilled to announce Latoya Cousins Dixon as the esteemed recipient of the Home Instead Markham Care Professional of the Month award for February 2024. Latoya's unwavering commitment, compassion, and dedication to her clients exemplify the values that define our caregiving community.

Born in the beautiful tropical paradise of Jamaica, Latoya brings warmth and compassion to her role as a caregiver. As a proud mother of one, she embodies a deep sense of love and nurturing, traits that have been evident since her early years. Latoya's family fondly recalls her natural inclination towards caregiving, as she often took on the role of "mothering" her siblings and cousins. This inherent desire to serve and give back to others has guided Latoya to pursue a career as a Personal Support Worker (PSW).

Latoya's passion for serving her community and giving back to those she loves is evident in her everyday interactions. She finds joy and fulfillment in helping others, and witnessing her clients' resilience and positivity, even in their most vulnerable moments, bringing her immense satisfaction. For Latoya, being a caregiver is not just a job; it's a calling—a chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others while being enriched by their presence. Despite her soft-spoken nature, Latoya possesses a quiet strength and a calming presence that resonates deeply with her clients. Her strong attention to detail ensures that every aspect of their care is meticulously attended to, creating a sense of security and trust.

Latoya finds fulfillment not only in the difference she makes in her clients' lives but also in the profound impact they have on hers. Every day, as she witnesses their resilience and positivity, she is reminded of the strength of the human spirit and the power of compassion. Her clients are always pleased with her work, and she is extremely adaptable, able to work with clients with all different needs and personalities. This trait of hers is very important in the line of work we do and has translated into her being recognized as a top employee.

In honoring Latoya Cousins Dixon as our Care Professional of the Month for February, we celebrate her dedication, compassion, and the positive impact she brings to the lives of her clients. Latoya's journey exemplifies our commitment to changing the face of aging through remarkable caregivers. Congratulations, Latoya, on this well-deserved recognition! Your genuine warmth and dedication illuminate the lives of those you care for, embodying the spirit of Home Instead.
