Our home care team

Angela Pollett

“I have been a part of the Just Like Family team for two years and my role in the company is the Client Care Manager.

I have always had a passion for taking care of people and especially providing care for the elders. I feel that it is very important for our elders to remain in their own homes for as long as possible. I believe It gives them a sense of security and safety in an environment in which they are accustomed to and it allows independence as well as preserving their dignity.

At a very young age I worked as a volunteer at the Health Science Centre. I knew then that my mission was to take care of people. My first paying job was at the Salvation Army long term care facility in Saskatoon. I was given the opportunity to work in many different areas and oversee the facility, staff and client’s care under the supervision and direction of the administrator and doctors. Unfortunately, every good thing comes to an end but my 18 years of service gave me a sense of pride knowing that I gave my all to people that needed my help.

After leaving the Salvation Army LTC facility due to closure of the facility I assisted in starting up and operating a 22 bed intermediate care facility. It was an amazing and successful accomplishment for a few years until my husband accepted a transfer to Winnipeg with the job he was in.

We made the move to Winnipeg in 2001 and within a year I accepted a position in a Healthcare company . For almost 18 years I continued to devote my services making sure that clients in the community were well cared for.

In 2021 I was blessed to be connected with Kenny Adewoyin who is the owner and operator of Just Like Family Home Care in Winnipeg. Together with Kenny and our caregivers, we provide health care services to clients in the community and in the Long-term care facilities. I am thankful every day that I have the knowledge, skills and the continuous longing to take care of people in need. I hope to be working with Kenny for many years to come so that I can continue to make a difference in the lives of many that are in need of help from Just Like Family Home Care.”
