As the sole caregiver for her ailing mother, Camesha Fynn, a medical assistant at CHRISTUS Health, needed support making the transition back to work after a two-month hiatus.  

Back-up elder care helped ease her anxieties by providing affordable, high-quality care for her mother while Camesha is at work. CHRISTUS benefits too, keeping its essential employees at work and ensuring the quality of patient care. 

Given her experience with the benefit, Camesha says she would recommend back-up care to any organization looking to support its working caregivers.
