About Klarissa

I consider my patients like my own family, I value, respect and give the best holistic care that I learned from my whole Nursing Profession and experiences in Germany, California and Philippines. I considered this Nursing profession as a calling, a dignified opportunity to help others who are in need of care and understanding. The best thing that I enjoyed in this profession would be seeing the faces of my patients, families and significant others lighten up, smiling and appreciating the care that I'm giving. And for me the greatest achievements that I'm proud of would be that I was able to contribute to this caring profession, share my capabilities, meet different people, learn from their experiences and give the best care that I can give.

I went into caregiving because I find a great deal of satisfaction taking care of others. I particularly enjoy the elderly. I have worked in private homes and in rehab facilities (alcohol and drug abuse) during the past 6 years. I also attended nursing school, but did not complete my course work. I have a CNA certificate. People say I have a pleasant personality and I am able to communicate well with anyone.
