Our Home Instead Senior Care office opened in 2003 with a clear purpose: to make a meaningful difference in the lives of older adults in our community. From the beginning, our focus has been on dignity, compassion, and truly personalized care. Dr. Jaime Peñaherrera brings an extensive background in health care and services management, along with a deep personal commitment to serving seniors and their families. He finds great fulfillment in sharing his experience to help reduce stress, create comfort, and bring moments of joy to those entrusted to our care. "Combining my passion for health care with serving others has been a natural and deeply rewarding path for me. Every day, I am grateful for the opportunity to meet our seniors and support their families. Building genuine relationships, helping with daily needs, listening with care, and bringing a smile one person at a time is at the heart of what we do. To me, it is personal."

She works closely with our team members to identify training needs, and organizes the implementation of our training programs. "I've always had a passion to work with others and help them to obtain goals they have in their lives. Having our clients being able to stay in their homes, and knowing there is a great CAREGiver there with them to help keep their independence is so very rewarding. To me, it's personal!"​​​
