Caregiver of the Year 2025: Fle’Nequa W.

Each year, HomeChoice Home Care Solutions recognizes one caregiver whose impact rises above an already exceptional team providing senior care services across our community. In 2025, that honor belongs to Fle’Nequa W., our Caregiver of the Year, selected from more than 140 caregivers across our agency.

Nequa’s recognition as Caregiver of the Year builds upon her being named Caregiver of the Month in November, but this award reflects something even deeper: the lasting, meaningful difference she makes for clients, families, and our team, every single day.

With over seven years of caregiving experience and as a member of the HomeChoice family since May 2021, Nequa has become a cornerstone of trust, compassion, and reliability in the delivery of high-quality in-home care for seniors.

What Fle’Nequa Means to Our Clients and Staff

For clients, Nequa represents calm, reassurance, and consistency. Families often share how much peace of mind they feel knowing she is in their loved one’s home, providing thoughtful and attentive personalized home care assistance. One client family described how she brings “a quiet positive attitude and an uplifting smile to every task,” adding that she is deeply client-centered and always eager to learn and adapt to their needs.

That same steadiness is felt across our office team. Our scheduling coordinators, RN Supervisor, leadership, and office staff consistently describe Nequa as someone they can count on; especially when things are hard or unpredictable. When medically complex clients require patience, skill, and emotional intelligence, Nequa steps in with confidence and compassion, delivering the kind of care that truly supports both physical and emotional well-being.

Our RN Supervisor has shared that when Nequa is assigned to a client, there is immediate trust in the quality of care that will be delivered. That level of confidence doesn’t come easily; it’s earned through years of consistent excellence, attention to detail, and genuine care.         

Her presence also matters deeply to our operations team. Nequa has repeatedly been described as a “hero” in last-minute situations; someone who finds a way to help when coverage is tight, schedules change, or urgent needs arise. Even when she can’t do an entire shift, she looks for solutions that support both the client and the care team.

Quite simply, Nequa makes everyone around her better,  clients feel safer, families feel supported, and staff feel backed by someone who truly understands what compassionate in-home senior care requires.

How Nequa Lives Our Values—Every Day

Fle’Nequa doesn’t just understand HomeChoice values—she lives them.

Her Can-Do Attitude is evident whenever a schedule adjustment arises. Time and again, she finds a way to make things work, adapting her day to ensure clients aren’t left without essential senior care cervices.

Her commitment to Doing the Right Thing shows up in both the smallest details and the biggest decisions. She consistently asks, “What does this client need right now?”, and then acts accordingly. Leadership has shared how she routinely goes the extra mile to ensure care is delivered thoughtfully, safely, and with dignity, a hallmark of truly exceptional in-home elder care.

Nequa is also deeply Solutions-Oriented. When emergencies arise, she doesn’t hesitate to step in, even if it means rearranging her own plans. This flexibility, paired with her professionalism, makes her an invaluable part of our team.

Above all, Nequa embodies Caring & Compassionate care. Whether a client is having a great day or a very difficult one, she meets them with patience, empathy, and respect. She doesn’t shy away from more hands-on or challenging care needs, instead, she focuses on the person in front of her and what will help them feel supported through meaningful care. 

And throughout it all, Nequa is a true believer in Teamwork. She understands that quality care has many moving parts and works collaboratively with caregivers, schedulers, nurses, and families to ensure the best possible outcomes.

The Whole Person Behind the Caregiver

Outside of caregiving, Nequa brings the same intentionality and creativity to her life. She enjoys yoga, trying new recipes, bullet journaling, and managing events, all of which reflect her organized, thoughtful, and nurturing nature. She is also a devoted mother who models resilience, strength, and compassion in every role she holds.

Despite personal and professional challenges, Nequa’s commitment to excellence has never wavered. Her heart for caregiving remains steady and her passion for providing exceptional care continues to shine.

A Truly Deserving Honor

The Caregiver of the Year Award represents the very best of HomeChoice and Fle’Nequa W. embodies that standard fully.

She is dependable when it matters most. Compassionate when it’s hardest. Professional without losing warmth. And always focused on what’s best for the client.

Nequa, thank you for the care you give, the trust you build, and the example you set for all of us. We are incredibly proud to honor you as our 2025 Caregiver of the Year.

Congratulations, you are truly one of a kind.
