About Gina

I have been working in the hospitality business, as a General Manager, until 10 years ago. Hospitality allowed me to take care of guests, giving them the opportunity to arrive to a strange city for work or play and have someone there to take care of most of their needs. I have always been a giver and I think nursing is my calling. I am 58 years of age, I am healthy and am enjoying my new career. I am hopeful that you will see what an asset I will be to your company and how many lives I can assist with comfort and care they deserve. I have in-laws to assist me however have had times in my life where I had to depend on strangers. I was fortunate to meet loving caring people. And I absolutely love being to return that love to anyone needing my assistance. It would be my pleasure to take care of anyone needing my talents. Thank you for your consideration. 386-320-8369.

Immediately after my fathers death, I moved up to Virginia Beach, Virginia to check on my mother suffering with last stage alzheimers disease. She needed my help full time, in home care. Her husband suffered from renal carcinoma whom I also cared for. He wanted to put her in hospice near the end of his life which I opposed to but had no legal rights.. She lived in hospice for 1 and 1/2 years before passing. Frequently visited hospice and learned a lot. My mother passed tbruary 2011.
