About Kelley

After being a recipient of outstanding caregiving services for a terminally ill relative, I, myself developed a an interest in providing home healthcare services as a career. As a result, I became Certified as a Nursing Assistant and Home Health Aide in 1996. Over the years, I have met many wonderful clients and developed an extensive skill-set providing all levels of care, bathing, dressing, meals, medication reminders/monitoring, shopping and transportation. I am also skilled in acute bedside care, including palliative / hospice care. I have gained additional training working in several hospitals in the Austin area, but ultimately returned to my passion, which is providing outstanding care in the a person's own home, thereby relieving the stress families feel when looking for competent care of their loved ones. I truly believe that care provided in the home can note only promote a much better quality of but can actually extend their life, compared to care provided in an institutionalized setting. I remain strongly committed to that mission, and believe I can be a great asset to your family.

I have worked in In-Home Healthcare since 2008. I am a Medical Assistant, Certified Nursing Assistant. I have worked with local agencies and also privately. I specialize in food preparation for individuals with dietary restrictions (shopping, food storage, recipes and more). I believe every individual has the right to eat there favorite foods everyday. I believe in keeping individuals in there own homes (the way you want) as long as possible (I have opinions, but yours is the most important to me).
