Kiley has called North Idaho home since childhood and now raises her own family here with her husband and two children.

She earned her nursing degree from North Idaho College in 2015. Though she’s worked in several areas of nursing, caring for seniors has always held a special place in her heart — she finds meaning in building relationships with residents, learning their stories, and being someone they can count on.
As Wellness Director and Registered Nurse at Honeysuckle Assisted Living, Kiley creates an environment where residents feel safe, comfortable, respected, and cared for like family. She believes great care comes from compassion and patience, and great leadership from leading by example. She feels fortunate to turn a lifelong passion into a career and is committed to making a positive difference in the lives of those she cares for every day.
