Ever since I was little I knew I wanted to be a nurse. I helped my mom take care of her parents with Alzheimer disease and dementia. I started to work at fox chase cancer center at 18. I also went on to nursing school and completed 2 years but I was unable to finish. But I stayed at fox chase for 10 years and i then went on to care for my father that was diagnosed with terminal cancer. I was his 24/7 caretaker. It was important to me to have every second I could with him. After he passed, I had to start back fresh to be where I wanted to be (as for my career), so I completed school with the Red Cross to become a certified nurse assistant. I am here to take care of someone just as I did for my father. I find myself to be a compassionate, caring and level headed person. I am also "free spirited" as my mom would say. I am very social and a good listener as well as I come from a family who likes to talk. I would love for you to trust me with your own mom or dad as I would treat him/her as my own. Thank you for taking the time to read. Any questions or comments please feel free to contact me.Take care! Gina :)
