A registered nurse and a graduate of the Villanova University School of Nursing, Gina has spent more than 30 years in the field of gerontology. She spent over 15 years at one of the top skilled nursing facilities in our region, serving as a supervisor, Nurse Manager, and Assistant Director of Nursing. She also worked for Hospice of Wake County and was instrumental in the opening and management of the first inpatient hospice facility in our area. As founder and director of Aware Senior Care, Gina brings a very personal perspective to her role. Having cared for both parents as they struggled with illness and home care needs, she confronted the same sense of guilt and confusion faced by so many looking at options for their aging loved ones. She is both an experienced care professional and a compassionate guide through the many choices available to families.
