Notably, Omega Staffing Solutions provides services to individuals within 24 hours of referral. Ms. Omavuezi and her qualified team of professionals collaborate with clinicians and social workers to develop individualized service plans before intake to best suit each patient’s needs. They also work in conjunction with various physicians and psychologists, reinforcing the pillars of gentle teaching to assist disabled patients with participating in their communities.
Among her myriad of responsibilities, Ms. Omavuezi ensures compliance with state laws and regulations, as well as with policies instituted by the Detroit Wayne Integrated Health Network. Likewise, she supervises managers, provides premier training services and direction, and ensures all team members follow the agency’s daily goals, objectives and mission statement. Ms. Omavuezi first entered the health care industry in 2006 as a part-time caregiver in the United Kingdom while studying for her master’s degree. She also served as a health care professional on a part-time basis while pursuing postgraduate studies in law.

Born in Nigeria, Ms. Omavuezi has leveraged her cultural background to propel herself forward in the health care industry, noting that her familial heritage sets high standards for success.
