About Karissa

Experience: 3 yrs

Making a difference in people's lives is my passion. As a Certified Nursing Assistant with three years of experience, I've found fulfillment in supporting adults and seniors, and offering peace of mind to their families. I can assist with transportation, errands, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I am CPR and First Aid trained. My approach is rooted in patience, compassion, and earning trust, which helps me connect with care recipients. I adapt to changing routines, de-escalate stressful situations, and handle confusion with empathy. I communicate through written daily reports or your preferred method. I want to bring my skills and caring nature to your family.

I have worked with Karissa for a little over a year long. I am the 3-11/11-7 weekend charge nurse on the dementia floor. Karissa was a huge asset to our team. She excelled in this field balancing her time management and adapting to the various personalized needs required for our dementia patients. Karissa is well versed in the needs/requirements of her job. She is extremely caring to all the patients put in her care. Most importantly Karissa is a great team player that hold the ability to appropriately communicate with staff, patients and their family members. I would highly recommend Karissa as a care taker for any establishment.
