Our process

Our process

The first step in the process is a complimentary, initial in-home care assessment with a Senior Helpers consultant.  This assessment can help you understand the true needs of your loved one, and your options. Together we can discuss their needs, our senior care services and determine what’s best for your entire family.

We will cover:

  • Your family's specific goals
  • Your loved one's daily plan design and schedule
  • Pricing and payment methods
  •  Implementation process
  • Ongoing communication and follow-up plan

Meet the Team

Thomas Blanton

Thomas Blanton

Owner

Early in his career, Thomas served as a dedicated firefighter and paramedic in Central Florida, later transitioning to work as a paramedic in Chattanooga, Tennessee. His primary drive has always been to assist people during their most critical moments. In 2012, he pursued his passion further by becoming a registered nurse, focusing on long-term care and geriatric rehabilitation. Holding a bachelor's degree in healthcare management from Bryan College in Dayton, Tennessee, Thomas served the elderly community as a licensed nursing home administrator and a regional administrator overseeing multiple nursing facilities. He continually seeks personal and professional development through ongoing education and hands-on experience.

Thomas has been happily married to Melanie since November 1998, and together they have two children, Zackery and Emily. Their family recently expanded with the arrival of their granddaughter, Daemi Rose.

Throughout his journey, Thomas has cherished the opportunity to support and care for the elderly. His aspiration to join Senior Helpers stems from his desire to contribute to an organization dedicated to enabling people to age gracefully in the comfort of their own homes. He believes in the importance of preserving independence and dignity for seniors, and sees Senior Helpers as the perfect platform to fulfill this mission.

The first day Senior Helpers started care with our resident was amazing! Todd came into meet me, and the care staff and check out the suite. Our resident came home from the hospital and Todd and his caregiver were here to greet him. Then Todd came back to be here when the next shift came in so that he could introduce the resident to the new caregiver. I have never witnessed just excellent customer service!!
