Home Helpers: Meet Wilma Blunt, an ‘Exceptional Caregiver’

From Staff Reports

Home Helpers of Georgia and Alabama, based here in Newnan, has one simple goal each and every day. That goal is to provide compassionate care that helps people live safely and independently where they call home.

With a daily goal such as that, it’s no wonder that the Home Helpers Newnan office has earned the Best of Home Care – Provider of Choice Award for 10 consecutive years. The 10th straight award was announced last week.

And to earn such an award, the staff at Home Helpers must consistently provide exceptional service.

This month, meet Wilma Blunt, who is part of the Home Helpers team and most importantly – an ‘Exceptional Caregiver.’

Wilma shares background below on her Caregiving journey.

“Prior to being a CNA, for 13 years I was a daycare provider. I absolutely loved caring for young children because they give unconditional love.

I received most of my training working in nursing homes. I thought all seniors were sweet like my grandmother. Oh, was I wrong! As time passed, I learned how to navigate the good, the bad and the ugliness of the business.

Now I’m employed with what I consider to be one of Newnan’s finest agencies – Home Helpers. I’ve been given the opportunity to choose when and where I work. While employed with this amazing company, I have learned a great deal concerning seniors. I’ve learned that the same unconditional love I received from the children, I also receive from the seniors.

I am truly grateful for the training and recognition I have received from Home Helpers. I would like to thank them once again for this opportunity and to continue to serve those in need.”
