PHOENIX,́momigrantesofrecenapoyoalapoblació Ariz. — Marlene Carrasco cuida a adultos mayores en sus hogares, trabajo que ha realizado durante casi 30 años.
El trabajo desafiante y mal pagado a menudo recae en inmigrantes como Carrasco, quienes desempeñan un papel enorme en el cuidado de los arizonenses mayores, según muestra un análisis del periódico The Arizona Republic y el Migration Policy Institute.
Pero a diferencia de los trabajadores empleados en otras industrias con gran densidad de inmigrantes, como la construcción y la hotelería, los trabajadores inmigrantes que cuidan a los arizonenses mayores siguen siendo en gran medida invisibles.
Los trabajadores que cuidan a los adultos mayores ya son escasos. La necesidad de trabajadores como Carrasco se volverá más crítica a medida que la ya grande población de adultos mayores de Arizona aumente en los próximos años, encontró el análisis. Pero con la reducción de la población inmigrante de Arizona como proporción de la población total, es posible que no haya suficientes inmigrantes para ayudar a llenar el vacío sin la acción de los funcionarios locales, estatales y federales, dicen los expertos.
