About Clarissa

Compassionate and energetic graduate student looking to continue gaining experience with bedside manners and patients. I especially love to work with Alzheimer's patients because I cared for my grandma for 10 years before she passed. I am passionate and enjoy learning about individuals and their life stories. I feel that is what makes everyone unique!

I'm a compassonate caring person who likes to make others feel their best. I have been a caregiver for 25 plus years. During my years as a caregiver I've had all sorts of notable moments, caring for those who sometimes just need to know that they are not alone. Also I like cooking and other ventures, I mostly enjoy assisting others with the help they need to make their lives quality, also listening to their life stories and sharing stories of my children and grandchildren.
