Carlota's Journey

From Certified Nursing Assistant to healthcare entrepreneur

The Foundation: Beginning with Compassion

Originally from the Philippines, Carlota brought with her a rich cultural heritage of compassion and family care. She began her healthcare career as a Certified Nursing Assistant, discovering her natural gift for connecting with patients and understanding their needs. This foundation of empathy and hands-on patient care would shape her entire approach to healthcare, blending clinical skill with genuine warmth.

Professional Growth: Advancing to LPN

Driven by her passion for providing exceptional care, Carlota advanced her education and became a Licensed Practical Nurse. She gained invaluable hands-on experience in both hospital and home care settings, working with diverse patient populations and complex care needs. Each experience deepened her understanding of patient care, from acute hospital environments to the compassionate setting of home health, where she truly discovered her calling.

"In home healthcare, I discovered that helping someone maintain their independence isn't just clinical care—it's about preserving dignity, honoring choices, and making meaningful connections."

A Bold Vision: Establishing Best Care With Heart

After years of working in home health and witnessing firsthand the challenges older adults face, Carlota took a bold step forward. Drawing on her cultural background, personal experiences, and professional expertise, she established her own non-medical home care services in 2025. Best Care With Heart represents her vision: a care service where every client receives personalized attention, where independence is promoted, and where dignity is never compromised. She is devoted to helping older adults maintain their independence and continue living at home as they age.
