🎉 We're All Getting Older… 🎉
…and for many in Boquete, that means thinking ahead about how we care for ourselves and our loved ones as the years go by!
With more seniors making Boquete their home, there's a growing need for quality elder care services in our community. That's why we at Rotary Club of Boquete Sunset are proud to help spread the word about a wonderful new initiative — though it's not a Rotary project, we believe it's a fantastic community service and a valuable resource for our town.
👵👴 A New Aged Care Program is Starting Right Here in Boquete!
Local, compassionate Panamanians will receive training to assist elderly residents with daily living activities, especially during times of illness or recovery.
This is being organized as a charitable project for our community by Orit Pines, who has 15 years of experience running in-home health care and adult daycare services in Florida. Orit is also partially sponsoring this effort to help make it affordable and accessible.
✅ The training and certification are non-medical, and handled by a professional, government-approved vocational training center in David. The two-day course covers:
-
First Aid
-
Mobility equipment use
-
Personal care and hygiene
-
Medication reminders
-
Meal assistance & light recreational activities
📝 Important Note:
This is not CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant) training.
It's non-medical, similar to a Home Health Aide level certification. CNA training is a more advanced, six-week medical course — this is not that.
After completing this two-day course, caregivers receive certification from the accredited center. All participants are carefully vetted — including police clearance, high school diploma, and a clean bill of health.
👉 And just to be clear: These caregivers are not housekeepers or cleaners. Their role is strictly personal care, companionship, and assistance with daily living activities — not household chores.
👉 How It Works:
If you or a loved one need care, you'll pay a one-time training fee for your selected caregiver. After that, you'll work directly with your caregiver to arrange their services and schedule. Orit will guide you through the details and help you get started.

Again — this is not a Rotary project, but we're proud to help promote it as a wonderful service option for our beautiful Boquete community! ❤️
