Teresa Steinfatt is the franchise owner of the Greater Richmond and Tappahanock offices of Home Instead Senior Care. While seeing her own family members struggle with how to care for their parents and friends, the Steinfatt’s recognized a need that had to be addressed. Through extensive research and exploring all options they discovered Home Instead Senior Care. They were extremely impressed with the professionalism and sincerity exhibited by the Home Instead Senior Care corporate staff in Omaha, Nebraska. Teresa along with her husband, Torsten, opened Home Instead Senior Care locally on September 1, 1997 as its only employees. They began as one of the original franchises and have developed an organization that truly cares about people and provides the utmost customer satisfaction.
Tragically, cancer took Torsten far before his time, which gave Teresa an even deeper understanding of the feelings and challenges that so many clients they serve are going through.
Home Instead Senior Care is the world's largest provider of non-medical home care services to seniors and Teresa is proud to bring that experience to the Greater Richmond area. Today, the business employs more than 350 full and part-time employees, and is among the largest of the more than 900 franchise groups for Home Instead Senior Care world wide.
Teresa has an extensive background in business as well as the healthcare industry specifically, which blends well for her work for serving seniors.
According to Teresa, "I feel extremely blessed with the opportunity to work in a business that provides one of the most needed services in the world today. Our staff, our CAREGivers and I are so fortunate to work in a business that rewards us through the heartfelt appreciation of our clients and their family members’."
