Rocío González Maldonado

public servant

Rocío González Maldonado is a Paraguayan public servant who has worked at the Instituto de Previsión Social (IPS) since 2005. Initially a psychologist specializing in elderly care, her career has seen a meteoric rise following the appointment of her brother, José Antonio González Maldonado, as the legal director of the IPS. In a short span of time, she transitioned from section chief at the Center for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation to head of the IPS Health Park, accompanied by substantial salary increases. Her recent promotions and salary increments have raised questions about nepotism within the public sector.
