2024 Caregiver of the Year is Angela Chavez

HCAOA announced the 2024 National Caregiver of the Year last week at the National Home Care Conference in Seattle/Bellevue. Angela Chavez, a caregiver with Gold Star Home Care in Glendale, AZ, was honored in front of industry leaders. Chavez’s unwavering dedication, compassion, and skill set her apart among more than 500 nominees from all 50 states.

Rebecca Rangel, Owner of Gold Star Home Care, who nominated Chavez for the national award, said, “Angela has the skill, experience, and heart to work with any client she is paired with—going 150% above and beyond expectations! Our agency regularly receives calls from community partners singing her praises, and they feel privileged to work with such an amazing person.”

ABC15 Arizona recognized Angela in a news segment as an unsung hero, highlighting her new title as the 2024 Caregiver of the Year. The segment highlighted her special bond with her client, whom she has been caring for over the past two years—helping her get to doctor appointments, improve her health, and reconnect with family. This client feels she can live her most fabulous life at home because of Angela.

Rangel agrees, “Without Angela, this senior wouldn't be thriving as she is today—independent and joyful in her own space. Angela often spends holidays with her client and encourages social gatherings, ensuring she enjoys the companionship she needs. Their bond is truly special; Angela has guided her client in making positive changes for her well-being. It's a relationship that means as much to Angela as it does to her client."

Congratulations to Angela Chavez on winning the 2024 National Caregiver of the Year award!
