Concierge Care Advisors is honored to introduce Marta Street. Marta joined CCA with many years of experience in and around the elder care community. Her introduction to serving seniors was in 1978 as a nurse’s aide in a skilled nursing facility. Her favorite time in her shift was when she could sit and listen to the rich stories of her patients. From there, she worked as an Emergency Medical Technician and Medical Assistant and then spent time working for Medicare in their claims processing call center.
Marta realized her true passion when she found herself back in the skilled nursing world in 2003. A social worker began to teach her about Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. There, she learned about the special qualities and needs of these residents. Because of that passion, she has been a part of the Snohomish Walk to End Alzheimer’s since 2019. In the year of the pandemic, she reached Elite Grand Champion for raising over $5,000 for the cause.
After spending many years on the financial end of senior care, Marta wanted to serve others in a more personal way. She served as a Community Relations Director in both memory care communities as well as independent and assisted living communities in the Snohomish County area. She is described as a “fire fighter” because of how well she helps her families that are in crisis when they need to find great solutions fast.
For fun, Marta loves to spend time with her husband and daughter. You may find artful rocks around town that she has painted or drink from a coffee cup that has a hand-painted mandala on it. She also shares her creativity and love of this art form by teaching her friends the art of dot painting.
