About Clarissa

Hi my name Is Clarissa,I'm a wife and mother.When I was a newborn my grandmother adopted me,she was only 60yrs old and raised me my whole life.So immediately I grew attached to elders because of how I am towards her.My grandma is a retired CNA,so all my life I watched her take care of others.Shortly after I grew a love for doing the same thing.Its in my heart to treat any elder I take care of the same way I would my grandma.Im very patient,down to earth and can not only care for someone but really make them feel love that's why I would make a great caregiver.

One of the reasons that makes me who I am as a caregiver is the compassion that I have in my heart for my clients and their families. I am a person of integrity, honesty, dependability and concern. It's about giving of myself to my clients and having a sense of the quality of life concerning the lifestyle they have. When I come into their presence a smile comes on their face. I will show the passion, give the encouragement, and hope they will have the confidence that I will know exactly what to do concerning their plan of care. I became a caregiver because of my mother's influence. Listening to her talk about her clients was interesting and heart warming and sometimes I felt sad and wanted to help, so I did! The rewards of being a caregiver is caring for those who cannot care for themselves or just needing a little help. Always understanding what care consists of at all times regardless of the situations and circumstances whether it's to assist or just HELP. I love what I do as a caregiver because I have a compassionate heart.
