Driven by Compassion, Grounded in 20+ Years of Experience
Grace Hands was created out of a simple, deeply personal belief: every individual deserves to live with dignity, comfort, and genuine human connection.
Behind Grace Hands is founder Xolisa "Lisa" Nikani, whose journey in caregiving spans over two decades. With more than 20 years of hands-on experience in elderly care and 6+ specialized years in hospice care, Lisa has spent her life walking alongside individuals and families during some of their most vulnerable moments.
Through those years on the frontlines, Lisa learned that true support goes far beyond basic daily routines. It requires listening, building real relationships, and creating a space where people feel truly seen, valued, and safe.
A Shared Mission for Homes & Home Care
That lifelong commitment led to the creation of both Grace Hands Homes and Grace Hands Home Care Services.
- Grace Hands Homes: Built to provide a stable, welcoming, family-style environment for Veterans and older adults—honoring their independence while making sure no one has to navigate life alone.
- Grace Hands Home Care Services: Designed to deliver flexible, compassionate in-home support that allows individuals to maintain their lifestyle and peace of mind in the comfort of their own residence.
Whether welcoming a resident into one of our shared homes or assisting a family through in-home care, Lisa leads Grace Hands with heartfelt empathy, deep clinical understanding, and a commitment to treating every client like family.
