Support Sheena Pascual-Ruiz: A Dedicated PCA in Need

About Sheena

Sheena Pascual-Ruiz is a beloved Patient Care Assistant (PCA) at Jacobi Medical Center. She has dedicated her career to caring for patients with compassion and commitment. However, life has thrown Sheena a series of challenges, and now she needs our help.

Why Sheena Needs Our Help

Sheena has been navigating a difficult period due to her health. She requires dialysis treatments multiple times a week, which leaves her physically exhausted and limits her ability to work consistently. Despite her determination to return to work on her non-dialysis days, her position has been reassigned, leaving her without a role suited to her medical needs.

The financial strain has been overwhelming. Sheena and her husband, who is her primary caretaker, are struggling to cover basic living expenses. There have been days without groceries, and her husband has resorted to walking from Jacobi to Manhattan to save money. Sheena has even had to seek food donations for her beloved cats.

Sheena has spent her career taking care of others—now, it’s our turn to take care of her.
