Was with us for over 2 years caring for our grandmother who has extreme dementia. Criselda was always very patient, kind and a great caregiver to our grandmother. Would highly recommend her . 

Cris is a very skilled and caring CNA caregiver. She was with my mom who was 93-94 for 2 years. During this time she was a very compassionate caregiver. She has the ability to be patient when needed and confident when needed. Would keep the family informed if my mom needed anything. Great caregiver!

Cris was one of my moms caregivers  for 2 years. My mom lived in her own home and needed 24/7 caregivers. Cris has years of experience and is a qualified and skilled  CNA and caregiver. She always came with a positive attitude when working her shift.  She was with the family until my mom passed away. She did a wonderful job caring for my mom. 

We were disappointed that she didn't show up for 2 scheduled interviews and only responded after repeated texts.

Criselda came to our home for a couple of months this summer (2022) and was an absolute godsend. Because of Criselda our family was able to keep my mom (90 year-old) at home during a critical time, and it now may mean that mom can spend the rest of her life at home. It's a gift that truly there's no way to repay. She was gentle, loving, and kind. She provided experience and knowledge to our family when we really didn't know what we were doing. You couldn't hire anyone better.  Hildegarde, I, and the whole family is grateful to you, Cris.  Thank you so much. God be with you.

My mother passed roughly 6 weeks after Criselda was hired, but during this time, Cris was a major part of my mother's care.  She knew and understood how to manage my mother's increasing needs (COPD, progressive Alzheimer's /dementia, bedridden, other health issues) and provided great insight into matters that were very new to me.  My mom and Cris would watch movies and laugh and do winky eyes to each other which I thought was very endearing.  She was even present when my mom passed and helped until the very end.  Cris is incredibly caring, trustworthy, dependable, professional, and reliable, and you would be very fortunate to have a caregiver like Cris taking care of your loved one.

Criselda is knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy and caring.  She took excellent care of my mother.  I would recommend her highly as a caregiver.

Criselda is an excellent caregiver and person. Any person or family in search of a qualified, trustworthy and professional caregiver should consider Criselda as a first choice.

When Chris came into mom's home (mom was 98), mom was gardening and active.  Mom and my dad built their home over 70 years ago and she was particular about who came in and particularly anyone who was there to "care for her". Chris recognized my mom's need for care, but most importantly she understood and respected mom. Chris earned mom's acceptance quickly and was onboard for all types of home upkeep tasks (particularly my mom's need for clean windows). As her health declined, I believe mom knew of her increased care needs. But mom, who was very independent and proud, never appeared distraught or embarrassed. I believe the reason for that, in large part, was the love and respect Chris provided. She was trusted and accepted by mom.  Mom loved family more than anything in the world and I truly believe she counted Chris as family.   Many, many thanks for your skills and understanding Chris.

Cris took care of my father-in-law from September 2020 to June 2021 when he was getting very forgetful and confused with dementia. Cris was extremely patient and a comfort to him as it got worse. She is an excellent nurse and caretaker and they spent many hours talking and watching TCM movies and Dodger games. He had one or two other caretakers during that period, but would always light up when Cris arrived to be with him. We feel very fortunate that we found Cris and can't recommend her enough!

Criselda has been helping us with my father since January, he is 89 and has dementia , she is patient and always attentive to his needs. She helps him when he gardens , prepares his meals, and does a great job of communicating with us on a daily basis. I would highly recommend her for any position.

Cris is a very knowledgeable, caring, compassionate individual with years of medical experience.  She was always willing to perform any tasks when it came to my taking of my Mom who was on Hospice Care.  Cris provided assistance and guidance during end of life care.  She made sure my mother was comfortable and cared for. Her medical knowledge and experience was invaluable to our family.  We highly recommend her caring for your own loved one on Hospice Care.
