Jack Foreman
Owner
About A Place At Home – Cornelius
A Place At Home – Cornelius is owned and operated by Jack Foreman, who understands the search for home care from personal experience. When his mother was diagnosed with dementia, Jack found himself trying to figure out what the right kind of help would look like. He called one place after another, worrying about choosing the right caregiver and hoping to find someone who would connect with his father. It was a confusing and stressful time for the family, especially with jobs, children, and everyday responsibilities still demanding their attention.
When help finally came into the home, everything changed. Jack’s family no longer had to spend their visits catching up on chores and caregiving tasks. They could simply be together again as a family. That sense of relief is what Jack wants to bring to the families he serves today, which is why he puts so much thought into matching each client with the right caregiver. His experience with Medicare and insurance also gives families another resource when they are trying to make thoughtful decisions about home care and plan for the years ahead.
Jack chose Cornelius for good reason. The area has a resort-like feel, its proximity to Charlotte brings together people from around the world, and he has found the community warm, open, and genuinely welcoming. When a parent begins to need help, you are starting a journey, not simply solving a single problem. A Place At Home – Cornelius is here to walk that journey with you, meeting your family where you are and helping your loved one continue living where they want to be: at home, comfortable and close to the people who matter most.

From the beginning, our focus has been on providing comprehensive, consistent, and continuous care. We know that caring for a loved one is a labor of love, and we respect the commitment it requires. Through A Place At Home – Cornelius, we give family caregivers dependable support with the everyday responsibilities of care, so the time you spend with your loved one can be about being together, not simply getting through the day.
