Many families find House of Peace while caring for a parent themselves and running out of hours in the day. Our Executive Director, Tracie Taylor, knows that season firsthand. She opened House of Peace after caring for her own loved ones, so other families would have a real home to turn to when more help is needed.
To make every person feel seen, loved, valued, and respected.
For Tracie, running House of Peace is a ministry. Caring for her own loved ones showed her how much it matters to be known, to be patient with, and to be treated as family when daily life gets harder.
That belief shapes the small choices: taking the time to sit with a resident who is having a hard morning, learning how each person likes their coffee, and calling a family when something changes.
Faith is part of daily life here for residents who want it, with worship and quiet time each week. Residents of all faiths, and residents with no faith tradition, are welcome.
The same small team helps with mornings, meals and evenings, so residents see familiar faces every day and families know who to call.
Ramona leads the day-to-day running of the home and supports the Resident Ambassadors on every shift. She is a UNC Charlotte graduate and grew up near Asheville.
“To provide heartfelt care to every resident while supporting the caregivers who make that care possible.”
Patricia has spent her career in health care. Her favorite part of the work is helping residents with daily tasks so they feel safe, comfortable and respected.
“To help make the world a better, safer, and friendlier place.”
Jennifer brings calm and structure to each shift. She focuses on giving residents stability and supporting their independence.
“Compassion. Consistency. Respect.”
Before health care, Desrine served 25 years with the Jamaica Constabulary Force. At House of Peace, she treats residents like family and keeps a close eye on their safety and comfort.
“No man is an island; no man stands alone.”
Sharon is completing her nursing prerequisites at Rowan-Cabarrus Community College on her way to becoming a registered nurse. She loves making each resident feel valued.
“To combine practical, hands-on experience with strong clinical knowledge as I become a Registered Nurse.”
Keena grew up in Charlotte and is a proud mother and grandmother. She is known for doing whatever it takes to help a resident feel loved and respected.
“To make every person feel seen, loved, valued, and respected.”
A Resident Ambassador is awake and in the home day and night.
The team meets every week to review each resident’s care plan.
Our team takes part in monthly, state-approved continuing education trainings held live at House of Peace by Vaya Health registered nurses, plus online courses through Relias. North Carolina requires medication technicians to complete six hours of continuing education each year from a state-approved provider, and our on-site trainings help our team meet that requirement.
Electronic health records keep every shift on the same plan.
