About Kelley

I have worked in the healthcare field for 20 plus years. I started out in a skilled facility, not knowing what I was in for, never had cared for anything more then my husband and child. The first few weeks were hard, many times I thought about not going back , but, then I got to know the residents and it wasn't long before I was anxious to go to work and see them. I know this is what I was meant to do in life, it gives me great joy to be able to give elderly back a little of what has been taken from them due to age. I am dependable and hard working, I give my all everyday to whatever task is at hand.
