Description:
Henrietta Ivey, a dedicated home health care professional, is interviewed in her Detroit home by Michigan State gerontologist Clare Luz and her colleague, epidemiologist Khalid Ibrahim, as part of an Archie Green Fellowship documenting the occupational experiences of home healthcare professionals throughout the state of Michigan. Ivey talks about how much she loves her profession and the pride she takes in making it possible for her clients to stay in their own homes safely and with comfort and dignity. She also expresses frustration about the lack of respect and challenging work environments often encountered by home healthcare professionals.
