It's no secret, most of us would like to stay in our own home as we age. Yet, sometimes our loved ones just need a little extra help to remain comfortable at home. That's where Always Best Care can help....we are dedicated to exceeding expectations....always.
They say that your golden years are the best years of your life. For most older Americans, that's how it should be - a time to relax, reflect, and live life in a familiar place. After all, senior citizens in the U.S. have worked tirelessly to build a better economy, serve their communities, and raise families.
However, as seniors grow older, completing daily tasks like showering and enjoying activities such as visiting the historic Forts Randolph & Buhlow State Historic Site gets harder without someone by their side. Unfortunately, many older Americans aren't able to rely on their adult children for help. The reality in today's world is that family members do not have the skills or time to dedicate to caring for their parents. That's where Always Best Care Senior Services comes in.
Our in-home care services are for people who prefer to stay at home as they grow older but need ongoing care that family or friends cannot provide. More and more older adults prefer to live far away from long-term, institutionalized facilities and closer to the place where they feel most comfortable - their home. Home care in Olla, LA is a safe, effective way to give your loved ones the care they need when they need it the most.

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it is especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age.
When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.
The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.
At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one gets older, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.
To give our senior clients the best care possible, we offer a full spectrum of in-home care services:
If your senior loved one has specific care needs, our personal care services are a great choice to consider. Personal care includes the standard caregiving duties associated with companion care and includes help with tasks such as dressing and grooming. Personal care can also help individuals with chronic conditions like diabetes.
Common personal care services include assistance with:
Sometimes, seniors need helpful reminders to maintain a high quality of life at home. If you or your senior has trouble with everyday tasks like cooking, our home helper services will be very beneficial.
Common home helper care services include assistance with:
Using this kind of care is a fantastic way to make life easier for you or your senior loved one. At Always Best Care, our talented caregivers often fill the role of a companion for seniors. That way, older adults can enjoy their favorite local activities, such as visiting Olla Town Park with friends while also receiving the care they need daily or weekly.
Common companionship services include:
According to AARP, more than 53 million adults living in the U.S. provide care to someone over 50 years old. Unfortunately, these caregivers experience stress, exhaustion, and even depression. Our respite care services help family caregivers address urgent obligations, spend time with their children, and enjoy nearby activities. Perhaps more importantly, respite care gives family members time to recharge and regroup. Taking personal time to de-stress reduces the risk of caregiver burnout. So, if you've always wanted to eat at the local Burger Barn or visit Olla Monument, don't feel bad. Doing so is great for both you and your loved one.
At the end of the day, our goal is to become a valuable part of your senior's daily routine. That way, we may help give them the highest quality of life possible. We know that staying at home is important for your loved one, and we are here to help make sure that is possible.
If you have been on the fence about non-medical home care, there has never been a better time than now to give your senior the care, assistance, and companionship they deserve.
Always Best Care in-home services are for older adults who prefer to stay at home but need ongoing care that friends and family cannot provide. In-home care is a safe, effective way for seniors to age gracefully in a familiar place and live independent, non-institutionalized lives. The benefits of non-medical home care are numerous. Here are just a few reasons to consider senior care services from Always Best Care:
According to AARP, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to age in place within the comfort of their own home. With in-home care, seniors have a way to stay at home, receive the care they need, and maintain a sense of independence, improving overall wellness.
If you or a member of your family have assumed the role of caregiver for your senior loved one, you know how stressful the job can be. Between caregiver burnout and constant worry, being a family caregiver is hard. In-home care relieves your burden and gives you peace of mind knowing that your older family member is in expert hands.
Unlike nursing homes, where the staff and residents rotate frequently, seniors can foster new friendships and build bonds with their caregiver. Seniors who socialize on a regular basis are often happier, which fosters positivity and leads to increased wellbeing.
No two seniors need the same kind of in-home care assistance. That is why each of our Care Plans is tailored to meet our client's individual needs. We offer plans that cover everything from light housekeeping to more involved duties like transportation to doctor's appointments. Our Care Coordinators will work closely with you to develop a personalized plan to ensure your senior's needs are exceeded.
Always Best Care offers a full array of care options for patients at all levels of health. With our trusted elderly care services, your loved one will receive the level of care necessary for them to enjoy the highest possible quality of life.

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit - something that is unavailable to many older people today.
In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a strange nursing home, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.
How much does a senior's home truly mean to them?
A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, then, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old.
With the help of elderly care in Olla, LA, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.
Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors.
Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.
For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like a nursing home. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.
More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier and more affordable to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. According to the US Department of Housing and Urban Development, seniors who age in the comfort of their homes can save thousands of dollars per month.
In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, are often less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.
With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.
In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.
Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.
At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.
In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:
When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.
Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.
At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Olla, LA understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.
Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.
Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.
While it's true that many seniors prefer to age at home, sometimes in-home care isn't the best fit. For those seniors and their families, choosing an assisted living facility makes more sense. Unfortunately, finding the optimal care facility is easier said than done in today's day and age. That's when Always Best Care's assisted living referral services begin to make a lot of sense.
Assisted living is a form of housing intended for seniors who require varying degrees of medical and personal attention. Accommodations may include single rooms, apartments, or shared living arrangements. Assisted living communities are typically designed to resemble a home-like environment and are physically constructed to encourage the independence of residents.
At assisted living communities, seniors receive help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and eating. They may also benefit from coordination of services with outside healthcare providers, and monitoring of resident activities to ensure their health, safety, and well-being. Caregivers who work at assisted living communities can also provide medication administration and personal care services for older adults.
Other services offered within assisted living communities can include some or all of the following:
At Always Best Care, our representatives can match your senior's emotional, physical, and financial needs with viable assisted living communities nearby. Results are based on comparative data, so you can select the best choice for you or your loved one.
Always Best Care works closely with local senior living communities to gain valuable knowledge that we then use to help seniors and their loved ones make informed decisions. This information can include basic care and rent, resident availability, and services provided. Because Always Best Care is compensated by these communities, we provide senior living referral services at no extra cost to you.
Some of the most popular assisted living communities to consider in our area include the following:
For many seniors, moving into a senior living community revolves around how and when they want to make a transition to more involved care. Some seniors are more proactive about transitioning to independent living. Others choose to remain home until their care needs or other requirements are satisfied. Remember - our staff is here to help. Contact our office today to learn more about assisted living communities and how we can find a facility that exceeds your expectations.
The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Always Best Care Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:
A discussion of your needs and how our trained caregivers can offer assistance in the most effective way
A draft of your care plan, which includes highly detailed notes and a framework for the care that you or your senior will receive
Discuss payment options and help coordinate billing with your insurance provider
Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.
If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.
At the end of the day, we only hire the best of the best at Always Best Care. Whether you need home care in Olla, LA 24-hours a day or only need a respite for a couple of hours, we are here to serve you.
When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

El Parque Bosque de la Olla, ubicado en la zona de Las Joyas, recibió el Green Flag Award, un reconocimiento internacional otorgado por la Asociación Nacional de Parques y Recreación (ANPR) que distingue a los parques mejor administrados del mundo. Este logro coloca a León como referente en la gestión de espacios públicos y consolida la visión de la presidenta municipal, Ale Gutiérrez, de contar con la mejor red de parques del país.
El Bosque de la Olla abrió su primera etapa en 2023 y este año se entregó la segunda, beneficiando directamente a más de 50 mil habitantes de colonias aledañas como Camino a San Juan, Rizos del Saucillo, Cañada del Real, Rizos de la Joya, Valle de la Joya, Villas de la Joya, Siglo XXI y Lomas de San José de la Joya, entre otras. Construido en un terreno de 3.4 hectáreas con una inversión de 30.6 millones de pesos, el parque se ha convertido en un pulmón verde emblemático para la ciudad.
El reconocimiento internacional se fundamenta en criterios como ser un espacio acogedor, bien administrado, seguro, saludable, con gestión ambiental, mantenimiento adecuado y participación ciudadana activa. La Presidencia Municipal, a través de la Dirección General de Parques y Espacios Públicos, ha promovido un modelo de gestión ejemplar, que incluye innovaciones como la primera generación de Guardaparques, el programa Pásale Gratis y rutas de transporte gratuitas hacia los parques.
La presidenta municipal Ale Gutiérrez destacó que este logro refleja el esfuerzo conjunto de la administración y la ciudadanía, quienes construyen espacios dignos y de calidad que fortalecen el bienestar, el orgullo leonés y la cultura del cuidado de los parques. “En León, las y los ciudadanos hacen comunidad y construyen una ciudad más verde, más viva y con más parques”, afirmó.
El Bosque de la Olla se presenta como un espacio ideal para ejercitarse, convivir en familia o simplemente disfrutar de la naturaleza, invitando a la población a apropiarse de este parque de excelencia que ahora cuenta con acreditación mundial y que contribuye a consolidar a León como un referente internacional en parques y espacios públicos.

Agrupaciones sociales convocan a una Jornada Nacional de Lucha bajo la consigna “sin trabajo, solo hay hambre y narcotráfico”.
Distintas organizaciones sociales de todo el país convocan, para el martes 30, a una Jornada Nacional de Lucha y Solidaridad que se llevara a cabo en todo el país, mediante la realización de ollas populares bajo la consigna “sin trabajo, solo hay hambre y narcotráfico” y en reclamo a la implementación de la Ley de Salario Social y de alimentos en comedores y merenderos populares.
En diálogo con Noticias Argentinas, Emilia García de la Corriente Clasista y Combativa (CCC), una de las agrupaciones que estarán presentes en esta jornada, manifestó que, además de la olla que se realizará a partir de las 8:30hs., en el Obelisco (Av. 9 de Julio y Av. Corrientes), habrá otra en la plaza de la Estación de Quilmes, a la que también se sumarán el Movimiento de Trabajadores Excluidos (MTE), el Movimiento Evita y la Unión de Trabajadores y Trabajadoras de la Economía Popular (UTEP).
Esta medida tiene como objetivo central “visibilizar la crítica situación social” y “exigir respuestas urgentes” por parte del Gobierno Nacional, además de reclamar la “apertura y aumento del Salario Social Complementario”, una Ley votada por unanimidad en el Congreso en el año 2016 y que se considera “una herramienta clave” de la economía popular y el llamado “trabajo informal”.
También se solicita “la restitución de alimentos a los comedores y merenderos de los barrios populares”, luego de que la ministra de Capital Humano, Sandra Pettovello, declaró ante la Justicia “no haber realizado ninguna auditoría” que justifique o valide la decisión arbitraria de eliminar los programas de alimentos.
“Exigimos el envío de alimentos de forma urgente, ya que son un sostén fundamental para miles de familias, sobre todo niñeces y ancianos. La otra cara de la motosierra a las políticas sociales. El vacío dejado por la anulación de políticas públicas dirigidas a los sectores populares tiene consecuencias que van más allá del hambre. La retirada del Estado de los barrios ha creado un terreno fértil para el avance del narcotráfico y el consumo de drogas, que encuentran un caldo de cultivo en la desesperanza y la falta de alternativas. Mientras la comunidad queda atrapada entre la necesidad y la violencia, el gobierno Nacional beneficia directamente a los poderes concentrados de la economía”, concluyeron.

En su segundo día de paralización, los docentes de la Universidad Nacional Santiago Antúnez de Mayolo (Unasam) intensificaron su protesta con la instalación de una olla común en el frontis de su local universitario.

En su segundo día de paralización, los docentes de la Universidad Nacional Santiago Antúnez de Mayolo (Unasam) intensificaron su protesta con la instalación de una olla común en el frontis de su local universitario. La medida busca visibilizar lo que consideran una postergación histórica en la homologación de haberes y la reglamentación de la Compensación por Tiempo de Servicios (CTS).
“Este es un proceso de lucha de 40 años de espera y de indiferencia de los gobiernos”, expresó el docente César Serna, quien remarcó que la indignación se agudizó tras la aprobación del RINSU, un nuevo sistema remunerativo impulsado en el Congreso que, según afirmó, constituye “un obstáculo más” para atender sus demandas.
El profesor precisó que la falta de avances no solo afecta a miles de docentes universitarios a nivel nacional, sino también a unos siete mil estudiantes de la Unasam, que hoy ven interrumpidas sus clases debido al paro. “Este gobierno ya debió irse hace tiempo, porque no atiende ni a la docencia universitaria ni al pueblo”, cuestionó.
En paralelo a la movilización nacional en Lima, los docentes en Huaraz realizaron plantones y compartieron alimentos preparados de manera colectiva. “La olla común es también una manera de integrarnos; hoy tocó a las facultades de Ciencias Sociales e Ingeniería Civil preparar la comida con productos locales como papa, huevo y queso”, señalaron los organizadores.
Respecto al respaldo político, Serna lamentó que ningún congresista se haya pronunciado en Áncash y criticó en particular la participación del parlamentario José María Balcázar en la iniciativa del RINSU. “Necesitamos que nos expliquen de qué se trata realmente este sistema. Si tiene aspectos positivos, lo evaluaremos; si no, seguiremos en pie de lucha”, advirtió.
La Oficina Regional de Coordinación (ORC) Huaraz de la ONPE inició sesiones informativas con las organizaciones políticas de Áncash para detallar las normas que regirán las elecciones primarias de cara a los comicios generales del 12 de abril de 2026.
Estas jornadas explican la modalidad indirecta, mediante la cual los delegados seleccionados por cada partido definirán las candidaturas a la Presidencia, Vicepresidencias, Congreso y Parlamento Andino. Hasta el momento, las sesiones han incluido a partidos como Acción Popular y Perú Primero, y se espera que otras agrupaciones participen en las próximas semanas.
Durante las sesiones también se abordaron los procedimientos de democracia interna y el papel de la ONPE como organismo de orientación técnica. La ley establece que la asistencia de la entidad electoral no implica asumir la organización del proceso, responsabilidad que recae exclusivamente en cada partido, según la Ley N.° 28094.
Con estas actividades, los partidos políticos buscan contar con la información necesaria para desarrollar sus elecciones primarias de manera ordenada y transparente, asegurando que los procesos internos no generen conflictos antes de la definición de candidatos para las elecciones generales.
La Comisión de Promoción del Perú para la Exportación y el Turismo (PromPerú), junto a la Asociación Peruana de Turismo de Aventura, Ecoturismo y Turismo Especializado (APTAE), inauguró en Carhuaz la primera Rueda de Negocios de Naturaleza y Aventura “Peru Outdoor Expo 2025”, con la expectativa de concretar USD 1.5 millones en negocios potenciales.
En diálogo con la prensa, Elizabeth Hakim, ejecutiva del mercado europeo de PromPerú, subrayó que este encuentro busca abrir nuevas oportunidades para regiones menos conocidas pero con alto potencial turístico, como Áncash:
“Cusco es muy conocido, pero esta región de la Cordillera Blanca es menos explorada. Queremos darle mayor impulso, aprovechar la conectividad aérea y mostrar a los compradores internacionales que el Perú tiene mucho más por ofrecer”, señaló.
Hakim precisó que el evento reúne a 34 compradores internacionales y 33 empresas peruanas, con representantes de mercados estratégicos como Estados Unidos, Canadá, Reino Unido, Francia, Suiza, India, Brasil y Colombia. Además, destacó que la finalidad es “hacer negocios, vender el Perú en su conjunto, desde Ica y Chachapoyas hasta la región Áncash, y al mismo tiempo permitir que los visitantes disfruten de las experiencias únicas que ofrece el país”.
Previo a las ruedas de negociación, los operadores internacionales realizaron viajes de familiarización en Áncash, Amazonas e Ica, donde participaron en trekking, montañismo, observación de aves y deportes de aventura. “Queremos que los compradores se lleven una visión integral de lo que significa la experiencia turística en el Perú”, añadió Hakim.
PromPerú proyecta más de 600 citas comerciales durante los dos días del evento y confía en superar la expectativa inicial de 1.5 millones de dólares en negocios. Según Hakim, la institución continuará capacitando a operadores locales a través de su área de Inteligencia Turística, que brinda herramientas presenciales y virtuales para mejorar la calidad del servicio.
“Apoyamos a que vendan, a que hagan negocio y a que vengan más turistas. La promoción del Perú no se detiene; hoy mismo tenemos actividades en varias ciudades europeas”, resaltó.
La agenda académica incluye conferencias sobre el Parque Nacional Huascarán, las rutas ancestrales como el Gran Camino Inca en Áncash, tendencias del turismo de aventura para 2025 y casos exitosos de sostenibilidad.
El expresidente Martín Vizcarra visitará la zona sierra de la región Áncash el 11 de octubre, en una gira que incluirá la ciudad de Huaraz y un recorrido por diferentes provincias del Callejón de Huaylas y los Conchucos. La actividad forma parte de un programa organizado por Perú Primero, partido al que pertenece, y contempla encuentros con afiliados y líderes locales.
El recorrido iniciará a las 8:30 de la mañana en el aeropuerto de Anta, para luego desplazarse hasta Huaraz, donde se realizará la actividad principal en la zona del Callejón de Huaylas. Durante la visita también se espera la presencia de precandidatos del partido a nivel distrital, provincial y regional, así como de miembros que aspiran a cargos en la Cámara de Diputados y de Senadores.
El hermano del expresidente, Mario Vizcarra, quien ocupa la presidencia de la comisión política del partido, también estará presente en la gira. Según se informó, la organización de la visita se realiza siguiendo los procedimientos y normativas electorales vigentes, respetando los plazos y reglas de las elecciones internas del partido.
La actividad de este 11 de octubre se enmarca en la preparación de elecciones generales y regionales y tiene como objetivo acercar a los líderes del partido a la población. La visita incluye un recorrido por la zona costa de Áncash al día siguiente, con presencia en Huarmey, Casma, Pallasca, Corongo y concentración en Nuevo Chimbote.
Desde el partido enfatizaron que, hasta la fecha, Martín Vizcarra sigue siendo su precandidato a las elecciones generales, mientras que otros miembros del partido se encuentran coordinando actividades territoriales y respetando los procesos internos de selección de candidatos.
“Evidenciamos, una vez más, que nuestro pueblo es muy amoroso. Hoy, martes 30, a lo largo de toda la patria se realizaron 400 ollas populares, en plazas, a la vera de las rutas y hasta en la puerta de la Bolsa de Comercio, en la ciudad Rosario. Porque los trabajadores pobres organizados alimentan a sus hermanos y hermanas. Contrario al gobierno de Milei que quitó el alimento a los comedores, con una falsa acusación, y encima dejó un salario social de 78 mil pesos por mes, que están diciendo que lo van...
“Evidenciamos, una vez más, que nuestro pueblo es muy amoroso. Hoy, martes 30, a lo largo de toda la patria se realizaron 400 ollas populares, en plazas, a la vera de las rutas y hasta en la puerta de la Bolsa de Comercio, en la ciudad Rosario. Porque los trabajadores pobres organizados alimentan a sus hermanos y hermanas. Contrario al gobierno de Milei que quitó el alimento a los comedores, con una falsa acusación, y encima dejó un salario social de 78 mil pesos por mes, que están diciendo que lo van a dar de baja”, explicó Esteban “Gringo” Castro, dirigente social del Frente Patriótico por la Justicia Social y durante 12 años secretario general de la Unión de Trabajadores de la Economía Popular (UTEP).
“Estuve en la olla de la rotonda de Lemos, en el límite de Malvinas Argentinas y San Miguel, y cuando fui a ver a los compañeros que cocinaron para la olla me agradecieron la convocatoria y que me acerqué a ellos que se hicieron cargo de cocinar. Tenemos que seguir profundizando las ollas y la organización, no queda otra frente a este gobierno con salarios de hambruna”, agregó Castro desde la rotonda frente a la estación de tren y el centro comercial Terrazas de Mayo.
En la conferencia de prensa, a la mañana en el Obelisco, como al llegar al mediodía a la rotonda de Lemos, el “Gringo” Castro llevó en andas la imagen de la Virgen de Luján, patrona de la Argentina.
De allí estas palabras finales: “El Santo Padre, Papa Francisco, en una reunión con los movimientos populares nos dijo que ‘el futuro de las naciones está en nuestras manos, en las manos de los pobres’, pero ustedes dirán como yo que soy cartonero, que trabajo en una feria, o no tengo trabajo formal, como puedo mejorar el futuro del país, y bueno es como estamos haciendo hoy, acá, tengamos fe en Dios y la Virgen, y mucha fe en este proceso de lucha que se está dando para tener un gobierno popular que garantice los derechos sagrados de los trabajadores, lo que es sagrado nadie lo puede tocar, así será, volveremos a tener los derechos sagrados”.
La jornada de ollas populares, que protagonizaron distintas organizaciones entre la más relevante la Corriente Clasista y Combativa (CCC) que encabeza Juan Carlos Alderete, alcanzó desde el extremo sur, la provincia de Tierra del Fuego y Santa Cruz, hasta el otro extremo norte, Jujuy y Misiones, donde se realizaron 90 ollas en toda la provincia, como en La Plata donde hubo piquete, y Chaco.
La jornada inició en el Obelisco con la bendición del sacerdote Pancho Velo, miembro del Grupo Curas de Opción por los Pobres, y luego siguió con la conferencia donde hablaron desde Alderete, pasando por Gastón Harispe de Octubres, Soledad de la Corriente Popular, Yesica del Frente Popular Dario Santillán, Marta de NuestraAmerica, y Omar Giuliano de la CTA-A, entre otros.
La Asociación de Licenciados en Enfermería (ALE) anunció una nueva jornada de lucha para este martes 30 de septiembre a las 13:30 frente al Tribunal Superior de Justicia de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, en Cerrito 760. Allí, realizarán una olla popular para visibilizar el reclamo histórico de equiparación salarial con el resto de los profesionales de la salud, amparados bajo la Ley 6035. “El reclamo es claro: la ley 6767 no mejoró nada, las paritarias...
La Asociación de Licenciados en Enfermería (ALE) anunció una nueva jornada de lucha para este martes 30 de septiembre a las 13:30 frente al Tribunal Superior de Justicia de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, en Cerrito 760. Allí, realizarán una olla popular para visibilizar el reclamo histórico de equiparación salarial con el resto de los profesionales de la salud, amparados bajo la Ley 6035.
“El reclamo es claro: la ley 6767 no mejoró nada, las paritarias son de hambre y el Tribunal Superior tiene la oportunidad de terminar con la discriminación: que nos vea, que nos escuche y que falle a favor de la Primera Línea”, señalaron desde la organización.
Andrea Ramírez, enfermera del Hospital Ramos Mejía y presidenta de la ALE, denunció que la situación es crítica: “Cobramos menos del 50% que otros colegas, la mayoría somos mujeres, jefas de hogar, con dos o tres trabajos para parar la olla. La ley 6767 fue puro verso y las paritarias que firma SUTECBA son una vergüenza. Ya hubo dos fallos que ordenaron al Gobierno porteño equiparar a la enfermería con la Ley 6035, pero tanto Rodríguez Larreta como Jorge Macri y su ministro Quirós apelaron las sentencias. Ahora el TSJ tiene la palabra: o está con la enfermería o sigue siendo cómplice del maltrato a la Primera Línea”.
Por su parte, Luciana Franco, enfermera del Hospital Fernández y secretaria general de ALE, insistió en la necesidad de mantener la lucha: “No podemos bajar los brazos. Esto no es solo una cuestión legal: es sobrevivir, pagar el alquiler, los impuestos, llegar a fin de mes. Convocamos a toda la enfermería de la Ciudad, a sectores aliados, organizaciones sociales y referentes sindicales a sumarse. La justicia para enfermería es la equiparación a la 6035. Si el gobierno apela todo, la Justicia no puede mirar para otro lado. Nos lo ganamos en la calle, en los hospitales y en cada guardia”.
El reclamo de la enfermería porteña lleva años y ya obtuvo fallos judiciales favorables, aunque sistemáticamente apelados por el Gobierno de la Ciudad. La definición del Tribunal Superior de Justicia se presenta ahora como una instancia clave para determinar si habrá finalmente equiparación salarial para miles de trabajadores y trabajadoras que sostienen el sistema de salud pública.
