Add to FavoritesAbout Carissa
Hello! My name is Carissa and I am a Dedicated Caregiver experienced in working with disabled patients. I am committed to improving overall patient wellbeing and health through personal care and energetic engagement. I am skilled with assisting patients with daily living. I decided to get into care giving when my mother got sick with brain cancer. While taking care for her day by day I started to feel like I could help all people. What I enjoy most about being a care giver is the nature of the work allows you to develop a much closer bond with your clients than you would in most situations. They are still humans and still important in this world and by taking care of them and showing them they are still important means a lot to me. A personal achievement I am proud of is being 22 with 5 younger siblings that I care for everyday! I love them like they are my own!
