About Joseph
Experience: 10 yrs
My name is Gio. I have worked for over 10 years in home care settings as well as at Shore Memorial Hospital and Atlantic Care Hospital for 2 years. For the past 8 years, I worked with geriatric cases. One thing I'm very passionate about is upholding the highest standard of care and respect for each patient, and family. As a caregiver, you must have certain qualities such as compassion, understanding, respect and most importantly, patience. I honor each families' wishes and uphold the patient's dignity. I continue to research about the condition, follow up studies, utilize tools, etc. Families and clients need support and I verify that their needs are taken care of as well. Some people don't realize how hard it may be on the parents, not just the child. I'm currently a student pursuing a nursing degree. I am very passionate about what I do. I am always on time, and willing to come in whenever needed to cover shifts to help the families who I work for.

Feel free to contact me for details about Gio, but you will be extremely pleased if you hire him to take care of your loved one. He is extremely intelligent, detail-oriented, has a great sense of humor, very compassionate and understands the various disease processes that are presented in many elderly clients. He worked with a friend of ours who had Parkinson's and he took the time to develop activities and brain stimulation exercises that truly made our friend's life more enjoyable. They would hire him again for sure. Gio would also make an outstanding liaison for a geriatric case manager in the Austin area who may be looking for a strong nursing student who can work well with patients of all kinds. You will be pleased with his work ethic and his dedication to his profession.
