About Jarissa

Hello, my name is Jarissa. I'm a 19-year-old certified Patient Care professional who is passionate about providing exceptional care for seniors. I love caring for the elderly because it allows me to make a meaningful impact on their lives. I also adore seeing them feel valued, respected, and comfortable. My dedication to creating a supportive and compassionate environment for them stemed from caring for my dementia diagnosed grandmother during my younger teen years. Alongside my mother, we ensured that the had the highest quality of care during her golden years. From there, I knew this was my life calling. I too kthe necessary steps during the remainder of my school years to learn as much at possible about caring for others. I took over 15 medical care classes my freshman through junior year of high school. I became a certified Patient Care Technician/ Assistant by the end of my 11th grade year! Since then, I've taken care of children and elderly, moving more towards my destiny!
