🌟 Care Campaign Spotlight: Meet Fatima Del Carme Ramirez Mejia 🌟
In 2012, Fatima began her journey with us at the Passaic branch as a caregiver. Pregnant, planning her wedding, and determined to support her family, she made the brave decision to take a caregiving course. Shortly after, she joined CareFinders Total Care and stepped into her first role.
Fatima’s very first assignment was caring for a bedbound patient who depended on her completely. “At first, it was frustrating,” she recalls. “But my mindset quickly changed. I realized I was doing good for someone who genuinely needed me.” That experience shaped her outlook on caregiving and revealed the true value of her work.
From those early days, Fatima’s career has continued to grow. She became an Assistant Coordinator in 2013, later advanced to Coordinator, joined the Payroll Department in 2017, transitioned to Service Verification in 2023, and in 2024 earned her promotion to Branch Supervisor. Throughout her journey, she has been supported by her mentor, Katy Martinez, Regional Operations Director, whose guidance and encouragement remain a source of inspiration today.
Now, as Branch Supervisor, Fatima describes her role as both challenging and rewarding. Leading her branch requires patience, self-awareness, and calm while managing individuals, supporting caregivers, and addressing client needs.
Her advice to caregivers: “Be responsible. That’s the first step. When you take responsibility, you learn to love what you do—and loving what you do will elevate you.”
Fatima’s story is a reminder that caregiving is not just a job, it is a journey of resilience, growth, and the power to change lives.
