About Renee

1. I became a caregiver because I was not happy with the care that I saw given by a nursing home faciluty that my aunt was in. I felt the only way to make it better for the elderly was to take an active role in their care. 2. I like the companship of the elderly clients. I learn a lot from them and their life experiences. I also enjoy making them smile. 3. My greatest personal achievement is overcoming addiction. I am 11 years clean and sober. 4. I love caring for people, making them comfortable, and making them happy. I love taking care of my grandchildren.

    Hello My name is Ishe-ka Holley and I simply love what I do for a living, I found myself pursuing this occupation as a CNA after my father took sick for some time and then later years passed away. That experience gave me the heart to help people in need, I initially love assisting others from the very beginning but something about that experience pushed the love for helping others to be a big part of my heart! I am also a college student studying in the field of Healthcare Management, as you can see I love being involved in the healthcare industry.

    I became a caregiver after taking care of my grandmother during her last days, then when my brother and brother-in-law which are both wheelchair bound I cared and still care for them when needed. I have the patience and compassion that it takes to understand and deal with someone who may be having a hard time with the unfamiliar changes their lives are taking yet still have a sense of pride and independence about themselves...My mom just passed and I was that person that sat at her bedside and comforted her; So to sum it I have quite a few skills to offer trained in incontinence,transferring,Hoyer Lift.
