Latest review from our community
Dad was an independent, plain spoken, hard working farmer. He'd lived alone after Mom's death, for 18 years. He had tolerated his children "checking" on him for a long time . But finally a time came when he needed daily care that his children couldn't provide. We never imagined that Dad would put up with anyone but us coming into his home and helping him. Home Instead worked through the hurdle of Dad's resistance to care, his irritability, and his need for attention, with grace. Each of Dad's helpers provided by Home Instead Senior Care of Jackson, connected with him and ministered to him, in their own special way. Home Instead and their assistants cared for Dad, and his children, with professionalism, kindness and grace. Thank you Home Instead of Jackson TN. We miss seeing you...
