The Indiana Association for Home and Hospice Care says the state is desperate for nurses.She started in her hometown of Michigan City, and is now serving Indianapolis and surrounding areas.She was inspired by her mother, Judy Gore.
"People no longer want to go to the nursing home, they want to stay in their homes. They find out people want to die in their homes now. They don't want to go to the hospital and die, they want to be in the comfort of their home with their families. We make that happen," Rodriguez said. "We provide personal care, medication reminders, meal prep, showers, dressing, mobility, transfers, run errands, do grocery shopping, light house keeping, you name it," Rodriguez said.
