About Clarissa

My name is Clarissa Winslow. I have been a CNA for about 5 years now. I believe I possess compassion, patience, great communication skills, empathy, dependability, adaptability, medical knowledge, attention to detail, problem solving, respect, and stress management. These traits allow me to be a great caregiver. What attracted me to be a caregiver is fulfillment in helping, contribution to a greater good and family influence. What enjoy most about being a caregiver is building relationships, making a positive impact, and fostering independence. A personal achievement I am proud of is being an inspiration to others. Showing others anything can be done no matter what the situation you can accomplish and overcome anything
