Mary Ellen Riley, RN – Owner
Mary Ellen enjoys spending her free time traveling the world, socializing with family and friends, volunteering her time for heartfelt causes and relaxing at home with her dogs.
Integrity means everything to me. I want the care here to be done so well that families can go home, knowing without a doubt that we are caring for their loved one in such a way that they can rest and focus on just being a family again. I’m surrounded by loving family, great co-workers and the best of friends — what more do I need? Nothing.”

Knowing the quality of life that we provide for our residents and families at Holly Residential is very motivating for me. Hearing a resident refer to Holly Residential Care Center as home is a very rewarding thing that confirms our vision of what a “care center” can and should be.
