About Kristina

I Kristina Ortiz have compassion in what I do. I have 14 years of solid experience in this field. I watched my grandmother care and sacrifice to take care of mother with Alzheimer's for 7 years and from that moment know I wanted to give back in that way. Fast forward 20 years later my grandmother herself has Alzheimer's and I know first hand what the struggle is. I like to provide and help a family in need, who can be reassured that I understand just a little of what the struggle is like to care for a love one.

    People who know me would know how empathetic I am and how dedicated I am to helping the community. I have always loved giving a hand whenever and wherever I could. I enjoy taking care of people from little to bigger issues and will always be supportive. I am kind, passionate, reliable, and resilient. What attracted me about this job was helping people who really need it, especially that most are older individuals. I also was eager to work with people who have disabilities/diseases that I have learned a lot about in my classes, as hands on experience is very valuable to me. I think my personality would be perfect for setting a comfortable environment for my patient. The thing I love the most about caregiving is the ability to help someone else and also to connect with the individual.
