About Us
At A Place At Home – Cornelius, home care starts with understanding the person, not just the tasks they need help with. We support older adults who may be living with dementia, Parkinson’s disease, mobility challenges, chronic conditions, or simply need extra help with everyday routines.
We serve seniors and families throughout Cornelius and the Lake Norman area with personalized care built around each person’s needs, preferences, and level of independence. We listen first, explain care options clearly, and work to match your loved one with a caregiver who can provide dependable support at home.
Meet Our Owner
Jack Foreman
Owner, A Place At Home – Cornelius
Jack Foreman brings 40 years of combined experience in strategic planning, management, and advisory roles across multiple industries. As a licensed Medicare insurance producer and long-term care advisor, he has worked with clients throughout the Lake Norman and Cabarrus areas, helping families understand important decisions involving care, insurance, and long-term planning.
His commitment to home care became deeply personal when his mother was diagnosed with dementia. Jack and his family found themselves facing the same questions many families encounter when a parent begins needing more help. They had to determine what kind of care was needed, who they could trust, and how to support both of his parents while continuing to manage work, children, and everyday responsibilities.
The experience showed Jack that families often need more than someone to simply fill caregiver hours. They need someone who will listen, help them understand their options, and guide them through decisions that can feel unfamiliar and overwhelming.
Today, that experience shapes the way Jack leads A Place At Home – Cornelius. He believes good home care begins by looking at the whole situation, including the senior’s needs, the family’s concerns, and how those needs may change over time.
His background in Medicare insurance and long-term care planning also gives him a broader perspective when speaking with families about care and the choices they may need to make in the years ahead.
Jack has traveled to nearly 40 countries across six continents, giving him a broad perspective on the different ways families and communities care for one another. He has two adult sons and enjoys spectator sports in his free time.
Our Philosophy
What “We Are CARE”
Means to Us
At A Place At Home – Cornelius, our CARE philosophy guides how we work with clients, families, caregivers, and one another.
- Compassionate: We approach each person with patience, empathy, and understanding.
- Accountable: We take responsibility for the care and service we provide.
- Respectful: We respect each client’s dignity, preferences, independence, and home.
- Ethical: We communicate honestly and hold ourselves to high professional standards.
CARE is more than a company message. It represents the kind of experience we want families to have from the first conversation through every stage of care.
Who Are Our Caregivers?
Our caregivers serve seniors and families throughout Cornelius and the Lake Norman area with the compassion, reliability, and respect at the heart of our CARE philosophy. They provide personalized support that helps older adults remain independent, maintain their dignity, and continue living comfortably at home.
Beyond helping with everyday needs, our caregivers build genuine relationships with the people they serve. They also provide families with a dependable source of communication and support as care needs change over time.
Understanding the Cost of Home Care
The cost of home care depends on several factors, including the type of assistance needed, how often care is scheduled, and the number of hours of support required. Some families may need care for only a few hours each week, while others may need daily, overnight, live-in, or 24-hour assistance.
Because every situation is different, we discuss care needs and pricing directly with families during the consultation process.
Jack’s experience as a licensed Medicare insurance producer and long-term care advisor also gives him insight into the broader financial questions families may have when planning for care. Depending on individual circumstances, families may explore options such as private pay, long-term care insurance, veterans’ benefits, or other available resources.
