Danny Manzanares

Danny is representing Argus Home Health in the Southeast District. 

When I first accepted the position with Argus, I was a single father, raised three teenage boys using the discipline I received in law enforcement; took care of my family as well as studying/striving to be the best I could be for Argus, now I am their Administrator for four agencies; Law Enforcement taught me professionalism and ethics; my family taught me love and compassion as well as compromise; Argus taught me to have a greater respect for understanding client’s individual needs; compassion in Customer Service, Assisting, Caring, Respect and the Commitment to the Aging Population, as well as the Disabled, Underprivileged, who rely upon our assistance and professionalism; Argus also afforded me a Team of Multi disciplines who have become my work family.

I have developed a “Working Relationship” with Department of Human Services Administrators/Supervisors, Other Administrators of Agencies, and Service Vendor’s that Service the “Eastern Plains” through my involvement with ADRC (Aging and Disability Resource Center) that I was elected as President of Region (6). I would like the opportunity to represent the rural areas of Colorado. In my opinion I feel the greater populated areas are represented very well, but “Rural America” is not taken in to consideration, just as recently the “State’s” decision on “Travel Time”, this change will affect how rural town’s will be staffed, other concerns for that area has been “Meals on Wheels, Transportation, DME Vendors, Etc.”
