Meg Hogan -322

Nobody ever says, “I can’t wait to go to a nursing home.” Instead, they say, “keep me at home for as long as possible,” and that’s exactly what we do. -Meg Hogan Growing old is hard, right? Now imagine how difficult it is for a senior citizen who doesn’t have the means to take care of themselves. How about a person with disabilities whose family needs help caring for them? And what about the exhausted caregiver who just needs a little support? In the spotlight, Meg Hogan, CEO of Boston Senior Home Care. www.bshcinfo.org. She’s spent her career in service to others, first as a direct care social worker, and then in healthcare and non-profit management. Meg is a champion for economically vulnerable seniors and those with disabilities, with a focus on empowering people to live at home, independently, for as long as possible. Raised by a widowed mom, it was Meg’s older sisters who were her mentors, and all three girls grew up to be leaders in their own fields. “No one ever said you can’t do that. We’re all really bossy, and we grew up fast after my father died.” A true believer in hard work, Meg’s alarm goes off at 3:30 every morning because “my brain is on fire and there is so much to be done. Success to me is how many people I have helped today.” For 22 minutes of passion and purpose, just hit that download button. #elderly #socialwork #seniorcare #caregiver #disabilities CEO of Boston Senior Home Care bshcinfo.org
