About Gisela

Experience: 10 yrs

Over my 13 years as a CNA, I have found my true calling in working with the elderly, specifically specializing in Alzheimer's care. To me, memory care is about looking past the diagnosis to connect with the individual. I pride myself on my patience, my ability to redirect and calm residents during challenging moments, and the genuine joy I find in making them feel safe and valued. I treat every resident with the same warmth and respect I would want for my own family, ensuring their daily routines are filled with comfort, safety, and moments of real connection.

Gisela took care of my mom who had dementia for the last 6 months of her life. She was very helpful to mom and our family during a difficult time. Gisella is very knowledgeable about caring for elders with dementia. She has a very gentle and respectful approach to her care taking. I recommend her without hesitation!
