About Oluwakemi (Kemi) Iretiola

I came from Nigeria in the West African, We don't have a nursing home for elderly people, and my grandmother was old and sick, we decided to take a turn with my mom and myself to care for my grandmother until she passed on, Grandma lived with us for 12 years and she passed at the age of 98 years. This gave me the passion when I came to the USA 20 years plus now to assist, care and support the elderly, people with mental illness and developmental disabilities, and I have been doing it since I came to the state, both nursing homes, and groups homes
