My name is Gina Martinez I was born and raised in Pue lo Colrado. What got me interested in doing Home Care is watching my grandmother suffer from ALZHEIMER'S. We had the most kind, caring, compassionate , caregiver who was extremely helpful and very important to our family. She became extremely important to our family. Just seeing how helpful and needed she was to our family I decided I was going to help out elders from that day on, and ever since, I necame.a Care Provider and i love my job. Most of my clients have become my very bestfriend, and I am super close to them. I truly love each and everyone of my clients. They have become Such a big part of my life that I wouldn't change my job for anything. I wake up actually excited and happy to see and spend time with my clients. That is why I became a Caregiver because it truly has fulfilled my life tremendously in every which way and I beleive this is my calling from God.
