Marcia de Barros did her studies of Nursing in Miami Florida and started to work in Long Term Care of the Nursing Home in the Department of Veterans Affairs Hospital in Miami Florida. During her time as a Nurse for Long Term Care, she has been able to deal with the patient and their families within a multidisciplinary team of Physicians, Nurses, Social Workers, Recreational Therapists, and Physical Therapists in order to ameliorate the situation of the patient and their families. After all, our Veterans have fought in Wars to defend the United States of America and Marcia de Barros was a defender of the rights of Veterans and their Families to receive the optimal health care and treatment as an individual.

Marcia De Barros also worked in the Pediatric Psychiatric Department at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami Florida helping children who have been traumatized by physical and psychological abuse. Marcia de Barros made sure that the pediatric patients received dignity and compassion for the Patients.

Marcia de Barros in her current work has had to deal with patients from various wars including Iraq and Afghanistan who have suffered the traumas from these wars while Washington has decided that Hospitals can do better with more patients and less staff or at least with staff members who could have cared less about the patient. It has not been easy to deal with such patients. It is for this reason that Marcia de Barros deserved to be known as a Super Nurse within the circles of Helium.

Recently, Marcia de Barros married a Brazilian National who is a Professional in the Business World whose name is Marcelo Doliveira. On the 19th of February 2008, Marcelo and Marcia gave birth to a baby boy named Michael. After seeing the beautiful pair and seeing Michael, I have the feeling that Michael has the tradition of being a professional internally and externally.
